Abstract
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has been accepted as a safe and effective surgical approach for pulmonary resection. Typically, most surgeons use multiple incisions, including an access incision and several port incisions during conventional VATS to complete various types of resection. With the improvement of endoscopic instruments and surgical techniques, some authors have proposed that pulmonary resection can be accomplished with only a single incision. The potential advantages of the single-port technique includes less postoperative pain, fewer paresthesia, better cosmetic results, and greater patient satisfaction.
