Abstract

No study has discussed the application of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) to bronchoplasty or the handling of a needle and forceps in a bronchial anastomosis. We use the following steps for bronchial anastomosis: Insert the needle and forceps vertical to the bronchial wall, move them in such way as to scoop something up, rotate and turn around, repeat the second step, and pull from the bronchial wall along the curvature of the needle. Handling the needle forceps along the curvature of the needle is critically important.
