Abstract

The right-chest thoracoscopic surgery approach has become the preferred operation for the treatment of thymic disease. Due to the limited space in the anterior mediastinum, achieving en bloc resection of the tumor is a common difficulty. Here, we report a simple method to lift the sternum by single hook. This method has a lot of advantages, including providing a wide view of the anterior mediastinum for clear vision and being an easy operation.
