Middle lobe torsion occurred after right upper and lower lobectomy in a 74-year-old man. Immediate re-exploratory thoracotomy using the 3-cm uniportal VATS approach was performed. The torsion was corrected, and the lobe was anchored to the anterior chest wall with Prolene stitches. The patient recovered well postoperatively with daily improvements in chest radiographic findings. Follow-up examination was performed using fiberbronchoscopy, which revealed an unobstructed right middle lobe bronchus and sticky yellow sputum. Follow-up chest computed tomography was performed 3 months after the primary surgery and revealed increased expansion of the right middle lobe. We repositioned the right middle lobe successfully by using the 3-cm uniportal VATS approach, but more cases are needed to confirm the feasibility of the approach. Lobectomy remains the primary treatment option for such cases.展开更多

We present a case of presumed lung cancer in a 58 years old lady with SIT successfully treated by VATS lobectomy via an anterior approach. She presented with an incidental solitary pulmonary nodule in her right lower lobe, which had moderate FDG uptake on the PET scan. The nodule was too deep to permit safe wedge biopsy, due to proximity of a large pulmonary arterial branch. 3D-CT images were invaluable in pre-operative assessment of the anatomy and were the key to safe completion of right VATS lower lobectomy. Sectioning the lung after retrieval of the specimen suggested a chondroid hamartoma;therefore, systemic nodal dissection (SND) was not contemplated. The final histology confirmed the diagnosis of chondroid hamartoma. In an unusual anatomy such as SIT, 3D-CT allows construction of virtual reality models that can be viewed and manipulated before and during the operation to understand the anatomy better, highlight caveats around target structures and enable localisation of lesions unlikely to be palpated intra-operatively.展开更多
