Abstract:
The authors report a case of middle lobectomy by a thoracoscopic procedure. A forty-year old patient had carcinoma of the middle lobe (6 cm diameter). The use of staplers and ligatures by this way allows the control of the different vessels and bronchus. The indications of that technique must be evaluated in the future.
