17 VATS INCISIONS: DOUBLE PORT X

18 Double port technique

19

20 First Uniportal VATS lobectomy 29 th June 2010

21

22 In our experience, this technique is possible for lower lobes. For upper lobes, the hilar dissection is possible via one incision but there are difficulties stapling the upper vein, mediastinal trunk and the bronchus. Probably, the development of new technologies (angled optics, angled and curved staplers) will lead to single-port upper lobectomies becoming possible in experienced VATS groups

23 Think Uniportal!

24 First upper lobe resection (after 6 lower lobes) Completion pneumonectomy (Nov 2010)

25 Learning curve-fighting

26

27 Single-incision VATS lobectomy

29 Advanced cases

30 Unisurgeon surgery 2016 No limits Carinal resections 2015 Subxiphoid resections 2015 Non intubated surgery 2014 Double sleeve

31 You just need a little help at the beginning to fly and enjoy the way..

33 What is the best approach? THE MOST COMFORTABLE APPROACH FOR THE SURGEON THE LEAST INVASIVE APPROACH
