Successful Robot-Assisted Surgery for Advanced Metachronous Cancer in a Gastric Conduit after Esophagectomy: A Case Report
Ann Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 2024;30(1). doi: 10.5761/atcs.cr.23-00202.ABSTRACTThe incidence of gastric tube cancers has increased due to improved survival rates in patients after esophagectomy. However, the optimal surgical approach for gastric tube cancer remains controversial. Here, we report the case of a 70-year-old man with advanced gastric cancer arising from a retrosternally placed gastric conduit, 12 years after thoracic esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. Total resection of the gastric conduit was performed with robotic assistance. Although the working space was limited, secure resection was possible. Continuous ...

Videothoracoscopic First Rib Resection for Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome: Results of 13 Patients
CONCLUSION: The VATS approach in the resection of the first rib for thoracic outlet syndrome is a safe method. It should be performed with acceptable risks under experienced hands. The magnified view and optimal visualization from the scope are beneficial. Avoiding neurovascular bundle retraction may seem to decrease the postoperative pain.PMID:38417895 | PMC:PMC10902856 | DOI:10.5761/atcs.oa.23-00110 (Source: Annals of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery)

Evaluation of the Factors Affecting Higher Hospitalization Cost of Lung Resection for Primary Lung Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: In addition to postoperative complications and prolonged hospitalization, patient background, histological types, and intraoperative factors were also considered as the risk factors for higher medical costs.PMID:38325848 | DOI:10.5761/atcs.oa.23-00180 (Source: Annals of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery)
