Fig 1 Operative views of a representative patient undergoing tubeless uniportal thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).

(B) The tubeless uniportal VATS patient was anesthetized while spontaneously breathing with supplemental oxygen through a mask. After the operation, the uniportal incision was closed without chest tube placement.
