Front Pediatr 2023; 11:933158.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the feasibility and safety of non-intubated general anesthesia with spontaneous breathing combined with paravertebral nerve blocks (PVNB) in young children undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and to determine its significance for rapid recovery after pediatric thoracic surgery. Methods The data of 46 children aged 6-36 months with an American Society of Anesthesiologists status of I-II who underwent elective VATS under general anesthesia were retrospectively analyzed. Of these patients, 25 underwent non-intubated general anesthesia with spontaneous breathing combined with PVNB (non-intubation group), and 21 received conventional intubated general anesthesia combined with local infiltration anesthesia (intubation group). The following perioperative parameters were compared between the two groups: heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure, saturation of pulse oximetry (SpO2), partial pressure end-tidal carbon dioxide, time from the completion of the operation to extubation or removing laryngeal masks, time to first feeding after the operation, length of postoperative in-hospital stay, incidence of postoperative complications, and hospitalization expenses. Results The operations were completed successfully in both groups. When the non-intubation group was compared with the intubation group, the minimal SpO2 level during the surgery was higher (93% vs. 88%, P < 0.001), which might indicate better oxygenation. There was no significant difference of the duration of surgery and intraoperative blood loss between two groups. Compared to the intubation group, the duration of anesthesia (P = 0.027), time from the completion of the operation to extubation (P < 0.001), time to the first feeding after surgery (P < 0.001), and length of postoperative in-hospital stay (P < 0.001) were significantly reduced in the non-intubation group. The incidence of postoperative complications was not significantly different. Conclusions Non-intubated general anesthesia with spontaneous breathing combined with PVNB is safe and feasible in young children undergoing VATS and can promote rapid recovery in young children undergoing thoracoscopic surgery.

Comparison of perioperative outcomes with or without routine chest tube drainage after video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary resection: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Oncol 2022; 12:915020. [PMID: 36003771 PMCID: PMC9393739 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.915020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background In recent years, an increasing number of thoracic surgeons have attempted to apply no routine chest tube drainage (NT) strategy after thoracoscopic lung resection. However, the safety and feasibility of not routinely placing a chest tube after lung resection remain controversial. This study aimed to investigate the effect of NT strategy after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection on perioperative outcomes. Methods A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases until 3 January 2022 was performed to identify the studies that implemented NT strategy after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection. Perioperative outcomes were extracted by 2 reviewers independently and then synthesized using a random-effects model. Risk ratio (RR) and standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) served as the summary statistics for meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis were subsequently performed. Results A total of 12 studies with 1,381 patients were included. The meta-analysis indicated that patients in the NT group had a significantly reduced postoperative length of stay (LOS) (SMD = -0.91; 95% CI: -1.20 to -0.61; P < 0.001) and pain score on postoperative day (POD) 1 (SMD = -0.95; 95% CI: -1.54 to -0.36; P = 0.002), POD 2 (SMD = -0.37; 95% CI: -0.63 to -0.11; P = 0.005), and POD 3 (SMD = -0.39; 95% CI: -0.71 to -0.06; P = 0.02). Further subgroup analysis showed that the difference of postoperative LOS became statistically insignificant in the lobectomy or segmentectomy subgroup (SMD = -0.30; 95% CI: -0.91 to 0.32; P = 0.34). Although the risk of pneumothorax was significantly higher in the NT group (RR = 1.75; 95% CI: 1.14-2.68; P = 0.01), the reintervention rates were comparable between groups (RR = 1.04; 95% CI: 0.48-2.25; P = 0.92). No significant difference was found in pleural effusion, subcutaneous emphysema, operation time, pain score on POD 7, and wound healing satisfactory (all P > 0.05). The sensitivity analysis suggested that the results of the meta-analysis were stabilized. Conclusions This meta-analysis suggested that NT strategy is safe and feasible for selected patients scheduled for video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary resection.

No-drain management after thoracoscopic lung wedge resection with a novel intraoperative sealing test. Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2022; 70:900-907. [PMID: 35412103 DOI: 10.1007/s11748-022-01815-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Accepted: 03/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although previous studies have reported the safety of no-drain management after thoracoscopic wedge resection, most of those studies were non-inferiority trials. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether no-drain management with an optimal sealing test affects post-operative complications in patients after thoracoscopic wedge resection. METHODS A total of 906 patients who underwent thoracoscopic lung wedge resection for various disorders except secondary pneumothorax between 2011 and 2020 were analyzed. According to intraoperative findings from the sealing test, patients were divided into groups with chest drain placement (Drain group, n = 514) or no-drain management (no-drain group, n = 392). Our intraoperative sealing test used a flexible drain (Blake®, 19-Fr; Ethicon, Somerville, NJ) connected to the chest drain bag (- 10 cmH2O) to monitor intrathoracic pressure and detect occult alveolar air leakage. Propensity score matching was conducted to balance baseline characteristics of the two groups and reduce selection bias. RESULTS A total of 250 pairs were matched and standardized differences suggested proper matching had been achieved. Mean length of post-operative hospital stay (4.6 days vs. 3.2 days, p < 0.001) was significantly lower in the no-drain group. Total post-operative complication rates were significantly lower in the no-drain group (6.4% vs. 2.4%, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS No-drain management after thoracoscopic wedge resection was associated with fewer post-operative complications and shorter hospital stay in selected patients. Our novel intraoperative sealing test may be useful for no-drain management of select patients.

Front Surg 2022; 9:872496. [PMID: 35449552 PMCID: PMC9018105 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.872496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 03/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundWith the development of computed tomography, the detection rate of pulmonary nodules is increasing. Accurate localization, minimally invasive resection, and rapid recovery are the most concentrated issues in modern thoracic surgery. However, some traditional procedures, including CT-guided localization and general intubated anesthesia, might prolong the operation and postoperative recovery. The integrated operating room provides a practical approach to achieve precise pulmonary nodule localization with real-time images using electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB). Meanwhile, the minimally invasive video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) under non-intubated anesthesia is also applied in the same place, enhancing operative efficiency and recovery after surgery.MethodThe patients with pulmonary nodules resection who underwent nodules localization and uniportal VATS under non-intubated anesthesia in the integrated operating room between September 2018 and December 2021 were identified and collected. They all received ENB localization before uniportal VATS under non-intubated anesthesia, provided by the same group of anesthesiologists and surgeons. Perioperative data of patients were analyzed and evaluated to demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the procedure.ResultA total of 243 patients with 251 pulmonary nodules underwent ICG staining localization by ENB. The mean calibration time and navigation time were 0.91 ± 0.43 min and 10.56 ± 7.24 min, respectively. Overall, successful navigation occurred in 248 (98.80%) nodules. All patients received thoracoscopic surgery after localization, including wedge resection (231, 92.03%), segmentectomy (13, 5.18%), and lobectomy (7, 2.79%). All nodules were completely resected without serious complications. The mean postoperative hospital was 1.80 ± 0.83 days.ConclusionENB localization and nodules resection under non-intubated uniportal VATS in the integrated operating room provides a feasible and efficient approach to the pulmonary nodules patients, favoring the treatment precision and enhanced recovery.

Abstract
Background We investigated single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) combined with a postoperative non-indwelling drain in enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). Methods The clinical data of 127 patients who underwent double- and single-port VATS from January 2018 to December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. The groups constituted 71 cases undergoing double-port and 56 cases undergoing single-port VATS (30 cases in the indwelling drain group and 26 cases in the non-indwelling drain group). The incidence of postoperative complications, pain scores, and postoperative hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the double-port group, the single-port group had shorter postoperative hospital stays and lower pain scores on the first and third postoperative days (P < 0.05). Pain scores on the first and third days were lower in the single-port non-indwelling drain group than in the single-port indwelling drain group (P < 0.05), and the postoperative hospitalization time was significantly shorter in the single-port group (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups for operation time, incidence of complications, and pain scores 1 month after operation (P > 0.05). Conclusions The combination of single-port VATS with a non-indwelling drain can relieve postoperative pain, help patients recover quickly, and is in accordance with ERAS.

Abstract
Background The risk factors for postoperative complications in non-intubated video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) have not been observed before. Here to develop a simple risk score to predict the risk of postoperative complications for patients who scheduling non-intubated VATS, which is beneficial to guide the clinical interventions. Methods A total of 1,837 patients who underwent non-intubated VATS were included from January 2011 to December 2018. A development data set and a validation data set were allocated according to an approximate 3:2 ratio of total cases. The stepwise logistic regression was used to establish a risk score model, and the methods of bootstrap and split-sample were used for validation. Results Multivariable analysis revealed that the forced expiratory volume in the first second in percent of predicted, the anesthesia method, blood loss, surgical time, and preoperative neutrophil ratio were risk factors for postoperative complications. The risk score was established with these 5 factors, varied from 0 to 53, with the corresponding predicted probability of postoperative complications occurrence ranged from 1% to 92% and was calibrated (Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2 =6.261; P=0.618). Good discrimination was acquired in the development and validation data sets (C-statistic 0.705 and 0.700). A positive correlation was between the risk score and postoperative complications (P for trend <0.01). Three levels of low-risk (0-15 points], moderate-risk (15-30 points], and high-risk (>30 points] were established based on the score distribution of postoperative complications. Conclusions This simple risk score model based on risk factors of postoperative complications can validly identify the high-risk patients with postoperative complications in the non-intubated VATS, and allow for early interventions.

Abstract
Background The merits of spontaneous ventilation video-assisted thoracic surgery (SV-VATS) are still controversial. Our team retrospectively evaluated the intraoperative and postoperative advantages of this surgical approach, comparing with mechanical ventilation video-assisted thoracic surgery (MV-VATS). Methods We did a single center retrospective study at the First Affiliated Hospital of Yunnan Province. 244 patients were eventually assigned to the SV-group and MV-group, and their intraoperative indicators and thoracic surgery postoperative data were included in the comparison. Results The SV-group exhibited markedly less intraoperative bleeding and postoperative thoracic drainage, and the bleeding volume was correlated with the volume and duration of drainage. Further analysis showed that, patients undergoing SV-VATS had less activation of white blood cells and neutrophils after surgery, but they also had lower serum albumin concentrations. Risks of short-term postoperative complications, including inflammatory reactions, malignant arrhythmias, constipation, and moderate or more pleural effusions, were also significantly reduced in the SV-group. Additionally, hospitalization cost was lower in the SV-group than that in the MV-group. Conclusions SV-VATS is suitable for various types of thoracic surgery, and effectively reduce intraoperative bleeding and postoperative thoracic drainage. With less postoperative inflammatory response, it reduces the risk of short-term postoperative complications. It is also able to help to reduce the financial burden of patients.

Abstract
Background Nonintubated video-assisted thoracic surgery (NIVATS) has been demonstrated to be safe and effective in patients. However, the risk factors for intraoperative hypoxia are unclear. This retrospective study aimed to identify the risk factors for the development of intraoperative hypoxia in patients undergoing NIVATS. Material/Methods The study included patients who underwent NIVATS between January 2011 and December 2018. Intraoperative hypoxia was defined as SpO2 ≤93%. Risk factors for hypoxia were identified by binary logistic regression analysis, and the characteristic distribution of patients with and without hypoxia was elaborated. Results Of 2742 included patients, age, anesthesia method, the technical level of surgeons, stair-climbing ability, and type of thoracic procedure were associated with intraoperative hypoxia (P<0.05). The characteristics of patients with hypoxia were older age (P=0.011), higher body mass index and revised cardiac risk index level (P=0.033 and P=0.031), and lower composition of stair-climbing ≥22 m (P<0.001). These patients also had more anatomical lung surgery and mediastinal mass resection (P=0.033) and more epidural anesthesia (P=0.005). The surgeries were more likely to be performed by surgeons with less than 10 years of VATS training (P=0.009) and to have increased intraoperative maximum end-expiratory carbon dioxide partial pressure (P<0.001). These patients had a longer Intensive Care Unit stay (P<0.001), duration of chest-tube drainage (P=0.019), and postoperative hospitalization (P=0.003). Conclusions The current study suggests that old age and stair-climbing ability of patients, anesthesia method, thoracic procedures, and surgeon experience are risk factors for intraoperative hypoxia in patients undergoing NIVATS.

J Thorac Dis 2021; 13:1130-1142. [PMID: 33717586 PMCID: PMC7947539 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-20-3130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2020] [Accepted: 12/24/2020] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine the efficacy and safety of omitting chest drains compared to routine chest drain placement after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). METHODS Five bibliographic databases, ClinicalTrials.gov and PROSPERO were comprehensively searched from inception to July 29, 2020 (no language restrictions). Postoperative outcomes were extracted and synthesized complying with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Risk of bias (RoB) including non-reporting bias, heterogeneity, and sensitivity were assessed. Subgroup analyses were performed based on study design. RESULTS Of 7,166 identified studies, 10 studies [four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and six non-RCTs] with 1,079 patients were included. There were 561 patients in the no chest drain group (NCD) and 518 patients in the standard chest drain group (CD). In pairwise analysis the NCD group had significant shorter length of stay (LOS) [weighted mean difference (WMD) -1.53 days, P<0.001], less postoperative pain scores (WMD -1.09, P=0.002), but higher risk of drain insertion or thoracocentesis [risk radio (RR) 3.02, P=0.040]. There were no significant differences on the incidence of minor pneumothorax (RR 1.77, P=0.128), minor pleural effusion (RR 1.88, P=0.219), minor subcutaneous emphysema (RR 1.37, P=0.427) or pneumonia (RR 0.53, P=0.549). No mortality was observed in either group during the observation period (in-hospital or 30-day mortality). CONCLUSIONS Omitting chest drains in selected patients after VATS seems effective leading to enhanced recovery with shorter length of postoperative stay and less pain but with a higher risk of drain insertion or thoracocentesis. However, a major part of the evidence comes from observational studies with high RoB. Further RCTs are needed to improve the current evidence.

Abstract
Background To investigate whether tubeless uniportal thoracoscopic wedge resection with modified air leak test and chest tube drainage has better short-term outcomes than non-intubated approach with chest tube drainage. Methods Data were collected retrospectively from January 2017 and December 2019. Tubeless group included 55 patients with pulmonary nodules underwent tubeless uniportal thoracoscopic wedge resection, 211 patients underwent non-intubated uniportal thoracoscopic wedge resection with chest tube drainage were included in drainage group. Peri-operative outcomes between two groups were compared. Results After 1:1 matching, 110 patients remained for analysis, baseline demographic and clinical variables were comparable between the two groups. Mean incision size was 3 cm in both group. Mean operative time was 59.3 min in tubeless group and 52.8 min in drainage group. The detectable mean lowest SpO2 and mean peak EtCO2 during operation was acceptable in both groups. Conversion to intubated ventilation or thoracotomy was not required. No patient failed the air leak test and did not undergo a tubeless procedure. Mean postoperative hospital stay was 1.5 days in tubeless group and 2.5 days in drainage group. Residual pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema was not frequent and mild in tubeless group. Side effects were rare and mild, including cough and hemoptysis. No re-intervention or readmission occurred. The postoperative VAS score was significantly lower in tubeless group. Conclusions Tubeless uniportal thoracoscopic wedge resection with modified air leak test and chest tube drainage is feasible and safe for selected patients with peripheral pulmonary nodules, it might reduce post-operation pain and lead to faster recovery.

Abstract
The good results of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) combined with minimally invasive surgery are reflected in reducing the incidence of perioperative complications and shortening the length of hospitalization (LOS). It has been widely used in surgical fields of different specialties. The implementation of the day surgery mode can shorten the waiting time for patients and reduce the financial burden. Especially in thoracic surgery, the shorter the waiting time in the hospital, the more beneficial for the patient's physical and psychological recovery. With the widespread implementation of minimally invasive technology and accelerated rehabilitation procedures, the application of ERAS in thoracic surgery has made it possible for some thoracic surgery to be completed in the day surgery. This article summarizes the current application of ERAS in the field of thoracic surgery and the development prospects of day surgery models in China.

Abstract
Enhanced recovery after lobectomy surgery (ERAS) concept has been greatly developed between clinical implementation and minimally invasive surgery. In addition to the minimally invasive surgery, the management of the perioperative catheter has also attracted everyone’s attention. Tubeless minimally invasive treatment includes no urinary catheter placement during the operation and no chest tube after the operation. Here, we summarized all the reports on no urinary catheterization and no chest tube in patients with thoracic surgery and the impact of postoperative length of stay (LOS) and postoperative complications. We find that avoiding chest drain and urinary catheter placement after the surgery appears to be safe and beneficial for patients.

Abstract
Background Localization and resection of nonvisible, nonpalpable pulmonary nodules during video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery is challenging. In this study we developed a surgical navigation puncture robot system in order to locate small pulmonary nodules before thoracoscopic surgery. Methods Four pigs were divided into group A and group B and underwent positioning puncture with the aid of the robotic system. The pigs in group A breathed freely during the experiment, whilst mechanical ventilation was used on the pigs in group B. Results Using the robotic system to locate nodules achieved good results. For group A, a total of nine simulated nodules were created and successfully localized. The mean positioning accuracy was 9.6 ± 4.9 mm (range, 3.2–17.4 mm), and the time required for system positioning was 7.1 ± 1.0 minutes (range, 5.6–8.2 minutes). For group B, a total of 23 simulated nodules were created and successfully localized. The mean positioning accuracy was 2.9 ± 1.5 mm (range, 0.7–5.9 mm), and the time required for system positioning was 7.8 ± 1.1 minutes (range, 6.3–9.7 minutes). Conclusions The new method using a surgical navigation puncture robot system to locate small pulmonary nodules is feasible and safe, and its positioning accuracy is sufficient to meet clinical requirements. In addition, results indicated that breathing had a great influence on the positioning accuracy, mainly in the longitudinal direction. Our surgical navigation puncture robot system has wide future applications for accurately locating small pulmonary nodules in a clinical setting. Key points Significant findings of the study: A new method using a surgical navigation puncture robot system was developed to locate small pulmonary nodules before thoracoscopic surgery. The results indicated that this method can provide accurate localization and permit smaller and more precise resections. What this study adds: A surgical navigation puncture robot system has wide future applications for accurately locating small pulmonary nodules in a clinical setting.

Abstract
Background The acceptance of uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (U-VATS) for thoracic procedures has been growing worldwide. This study reports one of the widest Italian U-VATS experiences. Methods The prospectively collected data of 237 patients underwent a U-VATS procedure, between May 2016 and September 2017, were retrospectively reviewed. A wide range of procedures, like major and minor lung resections, esophageal surgery, pleural and mediastinal one, was performed. The main aim of the study was evaluating general outcomes in terms of safety and effectiveness, and analyzing short-term results of U-VATS approach. Results The mean age of population was 59.93±16.03 years. In 208 cases (85.3%) a U-VATS lung resection was performed, in 10 cases (4.1%) an esophagectomy or an esophageal diverticulectomy, in 15 (6.1%) a mediastinal procedure and in 11 (4.5%) a toilette for pleural empyema or removal of pleural lesions. The chest tube duration was 4.24±3.73 days and the postoperative hospital stay was 4.62±4.59 days. The intraoperative and thirty-day mortality were null. Mean level of pain in I postoperative day was 2.30±1.26 on VAS scale and the mean duration was of 1.54±1.21 days. In 93% of cases there was a resolution of pain after chest tube removal. Furthermore, the average level of cosmetic satisfaction was 2.73±0.49 (measured on a 0-3 scale). Conclusions According to our experience, U-VATS seems to be a safe and practicable mini-invasive technique, above all for surgeons who already have thoracoscopy experience or made proper training attending multilevel courses, hands-on conferences and wet-labs.

Abstract
Background Since the conception of enhanced recovery after surgery protocols, tubeless strategies have become popular. Herein, we introduce a previously unreported alternative air‐extraction strategy for patients who have undergone thoracoscopic wedge resection and explore its feasibility and safety. Methods Between January 2015 and June 2017, 264 consecutive patients underwent thoracoscopic wedge resection with different drainage strategies. Patients were divided according to the postoperative drainage strategies used: routine chest tube drainage (RT group), complete omission of chest tube drainage (OT group), and prophylactic air‐extraction catheter insertion procedure (PC group). Using the propensity score matching method, clinical parameters and objective operative qualities were compared among the three groups. Results Optimal 1:1 matching was used to form pairs of RT (n =36) and PC (n =36) groups and balance baseline characteristics among the three groups. The incidence rates of pneumothorax were 5.6% (2/36), 9.8% (5/51), and 19.4% (7/36) in the RT, OT, and PC groups, respectively (P = 0.07). Chest tube reinsertion incidence for postoperative pneumothorax was 19.4% (1/7) in the PC group and 60% (3/5) in the OT group. Other postoperative complications were comparable among these groups. Conclusions The prophylactic air‐extraction strategy may be an alternative procedure for selected patients. Remedial air extraction may reduce the occurrence of chest tube reinsertion for pneumothorax patients, but further investigation is required.

Abstract
From its inception, cutting edge minimally invasive thoracic surgery has pursued to barely produce patient perturbation. Although state of the art techniques such as uniportal approach have achieved a remarkable reduction in postoperative morbidity, there is still a way to go in patient comfort. A new 'tubeless' concept has surfaced as an alternative to double-lumen intubation with general anaesthesia combining non-intubated spontaneous breathing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) surgery under loco-regional blockade with the avoidance of central line, epidural or urinary catheter and chest tube in selected patients. Those procedures combine the most evolved and less invasive techniques in anaesthesia, video-assisted surgery and perioperative care to cause the least trauma and allow for faster recovery. Non-intubated thoracic surgery used to rise some concerns regarding spontaneous breathing collapse, oxygenation, cough reflex triggering and mediastinal shift. Today, experienced teams in high-volume centers have proven non-intubated major lung resections are feasible and safe once those drawbacks have been overcome with the proper techniques and extensive previous expertise in VATS. Tubeless thoracic surgery is currently evolving, challenging former exclusion criteria and expanding indications to major lung resections or even tracheal and carinal resections to provide better intraoperative status and promote minimal need for recovery.

Abstract
Background Non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery is an evolving form of minimally-invasive thoracic surgery. We commenced performing non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery at our center in August 2016. We would like to report our initial experience, over a period of 1 year, with this procedure. Methods From August 2016 to August 2017, non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery was performed in a series of consecutive patients who underwent thoracoscopic surgery in those who did not meet any of the following exclusion criteria: body mass index (BMI) >30, expected difficult airway, expected extensive pleural adhesion, severe cardiopulmonary dysfunction, persistent cough or excessive airway secretion, high risk of gastric reflux, and underlying neurological disorder. Results A total of 115 consecutive patients underwent non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery. Of these, 83 (72.2%) of patients had lung cancers that had undergone pulmonary resection and the other 32 (27.8%) patients were diagnosed with pulmonary metastasis, benign lung diseases, thymic tumor or other conditions. The mean time of anesthesia was 172.4 min and time of operation was 130 min. The mean postoperative chest tube duration was 3.9 days and time of hospital stay was 6.0 days. There were 9 conversions (7.8%) to intubation, due to increased respiratory movement with intraoperative hypoxemia or severe pleural adhesion. There were 16 complications (13.9%) following surgery, but all of these were successfully managed during the period of hospital stay. There was no postoperative mortality. In multivariate analysis, old age and high BMI were significant risk factors for conversion to intubation (hazard ratio =1.122, P=0.038; hazard ratio =1.408, P=0.042, respectively). Conclusions Non-intubated thoracoscopic surgery can safely be performed in selected patients.

Abstract
Background The tubeless technique, defined as non-intubated general anesthesia with omission of chest drainage after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), is a new concept to further minimize surgical trauma. However, there has been little investigation into the associated feasibility and safety. Minimization of postoperative pneumothorax is challenging. We set up a "tubeless protocol" to select patients for tubeless single-port VATS with monitoring of a digital drainage system (DDS). Methods From November 2016 to September 2017, 50 consecutive non-intubated single-port VATS for pulmonary resection were performed. In our study, patients with small and peripheral pulmonary lesions indicated for sublobar resections, as diagnostic or curative intent, were included. After excluding patients having tumors >2 cm, or intrapleural adhesions noted during operation, or forced expiratory volume in the 1 second <1.5 L, 36 patients were selected for tubeless protocol. The clinical characteristics and perioperative outcomes of these patients are presented. Results Among 36 cases, 5 patients had minor air leaks detected using the DDS and required intercostal drainage after wound closure. Among the remaining 31 patients in whom the DDS showed no air leak, the chest drainage was removed immediately after wound closure. A postoperative chest roentgenogram on the surgery day showed full expansion in all patients without pneumothorax. Only 7 (19.4%) patients developed minor subclinical pneumothorax on the first postoperative day without the need for chest drainage. All patients were discharged uneventfully without the need for intervention. Conclusions Our tubeless protocol utilizes DDS to select patients who can have intercostal drainage omitted after non-intubated single-port VATS for pulmonary resection. Using objective DDS parameters, we believe that this is an effective way to reduce the rate of pneumothorax after tubeless single-port VATS in selected patients.

Abstract
Following the development of radiological technology, there has been an increase in the number of pulmonary nodules found. The management of pulmonary nodules represents a specific challenge to thoracic surgeons. Pulmonary nodules are small, focal, rounded radiographic opacities that may be solitary or multiple. The definite histopathologic diagnosis is crucial in determining management ranging from interval imaging to surgical resection. The choice of a particular biopsy technique depends on the risks/benefits of the procedure, the diagnostic yield, and local expertise. Surgical lung biopsy has been reported as an accurate approach when less-invasive diagnostic methods have been unsuccessful. During the last decade, there have been huge developments of new minimally invasive techniques in thoracic surgery. In the present study, we will review both surgical and anesthetic techniques in surgical lung biopsy.

Abstract
Background To access the feasibility and safety of no chest tube (NCT) placement after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection. Methods A comprehensive search of online databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane library) was performed. Studies investigating the safety and feasibility of NCT compared with chest tube placement (CTP) after VATS pulmonary resection were eligible for our meta-analysis. Perioperative outcomes were extracted and synthesized. Specific subgroups (wedge resection) were examined. The methodological quality of the included articles was evaluated with the methodological index for non-randomized studies (MINORS) tool. Results Analysis of 9 studies including a total of 918 patients was performed. Four hundred sixty-one patients underwent NCT and 457 patients underwent CTP. The length of stay (LOS) postoperatively in the NCT group was significant shorter than in the CTP group [standardized mean difference (SMD) = -0.80; 95% confidence interval (CI), -1.13 to -0.47, P=0.000]. Patients in the NCT group experienced slighter pain than patients in the CTP group in postoperative day (POD) one (SMD = -0.41; 95% CI, -0.75 to -0.07, P=0.02), and POD two (SMD = -0.41; 95% CI, -0.75 to -0.07, P=0.02). While, there was no significant difference about the 30-day morbidity for patients who underwent NCT and CTP [relative ratio (RR) =1.01; 95% CI, 0.59-1.74, P=0.04) and the rate of re-intervention (RR =0.89; 95% CI, 0.33-2.40, P=0.57). No perioperative mortality was observed in both groups. The sensitivity analysis suggested that the relative effects between 2 groups have already stabilized. Subgroup analysis revealed an effect modification by operation approach regarding perioperative morbidity, but not for LOS. Conclusions This meta-analysis conforms that it is feasible and safe to omit chest tube after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection for patients carefully selected. Randomized controlled trails (RCTs) are urgently needed to verify this conclusion.

Abstract
Previous tracheal surgeries were performed under tracheal and cross-field intubation. However, the intubation would lead to bleeding if the tumors were large or hemorrhagic. Moreover, the tracheal intubation might interfere the surgical vision and anastomosis during the reconstruction process. Therefore, we performed a tracheal tumor resection and reconstruction via nonintubated spontaneous anesthesia. We describe the feasibility and safety of tracheal surgeries via such anesthesia.

Abstract
Pulmonary tuberculoma are benign solitary pulmonary nodules representing up to 25% of all resected solitary pulmonary nodules. However, the differentiation between pulmonary tuberculoma and lung cancer, as well as between active tuberculoma and inactive tuberculoma remains a clinical challenge. The present review summarizes the recent advances in the management of pulmonary tuberculoma, including radiological findings, the response to anti-tuberculosis treatment and surgical treatments. Application of the novel tubeless video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) technique in both the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary tuberculoma has been found to be safe and feasible and leads to less surgical trauma, which results in reduced length of hospitalization and better post-operative quality of life.
