Abstract
Uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery has grown in popularity in recent years, becoming the treatment of choice for minimally invasive resections of mediastinal lesions. The many advantages of video-assisted thoracic surgery, including decreasing postoperative pain, morbidity and length of hospitalization, have increased its utilization for optimal patient care. In our case, this approach was used on a 55-year-old female patient who presented with a retrotracheal mass protruding through the thoracic inlet. The resection was performed through the chest via a uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery technique with an unremarkable operative and postoperative course.
