description Video-assisted thoracic surgery is a new modality that allows visualization of and access to the intrathoracic organs without making a thoracotomy incision. One hundred consecutive patients underwent 113 thoracic procedures using this technique. Eight wedge resections for metastatic lesions, 6 pericardial windows, 1 bronchogenic cystectomy, 4 explorations of the aortopulmonary window, 1 decortication, 5 pleural scleroses, 8 bullous ablations, 25 lung biopsies, 19 wedge resections for carcinoma, 9 explorations of the thorax, 3 lobectomies, 1 esophageal cystectomy, 14 wedge resections for benign lesions, 4 pleurectomies, 1 excision of a neurogenic tumor, 3 mediastinal explorations, and 1 imaged axillary dissection were performed. There was no mortality. Ten patients had complications from which they recovered completely. Patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic operations seem to have reduced post-operative pain, shorter hospitalization, and quicker recovery times. Currently, this new modality appears to have beneficial value for patients; however, only further experience will determine its true merits.
