One-port (uniportal) video-assisted thoracic surgical resections—A clear advance  Gaetano Rocco, MD, FRCSEd, FETCS  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 144, Issue 3, Pages S27-S31 (September 2012) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2012.06.006 Copyright © 2012 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Technique of uniportal video-assisted (VATS) pulmonary wedge resection. Compared with a laterolateral approach in conventional, 3-port VATS, a caudo–cranial–sagittal approach to the target lesion in the lung is selected. (Uppermost diagrams A and B: reprinted with permission4). Through a single 2- to 2.5-cm incision, the videothoracoscope and the operative instruments are introduced into the chest. The relative position of the instruments–thoracoscope ensemble can be varied according to the selected parenchymal target area and the indication of uniportal VATS. (Lowermost diagrams: reprinted with permission5).
