Initial result of uniportal non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery to manage the thoracic diseases at Vietduc University Hospital

Abstract Introduction: The study aimed to evaluate the initial results of uniportal non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery for treatment of thoracic diseases at the VietDuc University Hospital. Material and Methods:A descriptive study of 17 patients with intrathoracic diseases were treated with uniportal non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery from 02/2019 to 07/2019. The data of pre-peri and post – operative were recorded. Results: There were 04 men and 13 women, mean age was 49,2 ± 20,5 (06 – 71). The average BMI: 21,48 ± 2,14 kg/ m2(15,39 – 23,93). Surgical techniques: GGO (Wedge resection): 03 (17,6%); Bullous lung disease (Wedge resection): 01 (5,9%); Mediastinal tumor (resection): 08 (47,1%); NSLC (lobectomy + dissection node): 05 (29,4%). The average operative time: 108,6 ± 28,17 minutes (60 – 160). The average drainage time was 3,7 ± 1,18 days (2 – 8). The average hospitalization time was 4,9 ± 1,76 days (3 – 12). No mortality and major complications after operation was recorded. Conclusion: Treatment of thoracic diseases with uniportal non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery is a safe, feasible, and well-tolerated .
