abstract = {The idea of operating through fewer surgical incisions and, therefore, with potentially better cosmesis, less postoperative pain and paraesthesia, is becoming increasingly more preferable. For these reasons, Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) came into widespread use in the early 1990s. VATS’ instrumentation includes conventional thoracic or laparoscopic instruments such as a camera-linked fiber-optic scope of variable diameters.},
