    Area of Science:

    • Thoracic Surgery
    • Minimally Invasive Procedures
    • Diagnostic Biopsy Techniques

    Context:

    • Traditional thoracoscopic and open biopsy methods can be invasive.
    • Mediastinoscopy offers a minimally invasive approach to mediastinal structures.
    • Unilateral contralateral respiration facilitates surgical access and visualization.

    Purpose:

    • To introduce and describe a novel surgical method for thoracoscopy, pleura biopsy, and open lung biopsy.
    • To detail the application of an intercostally introduced mediastinoscope in thoracic procedures.
    • To explain the technique of unilateral contralateral respiration during thoracic surgery.

    Summary:

    • A surgical method involving thoracoscopy, pleura biopsy, and open lung biopsy is presented.
    • The technique employs an intercostally introduced mediastinoscope.
    • Unilateral contralateral respiration is utilized to enhance surgical conditions.

    Impact:

    • This method may offer improved outcomes for thoracic biopsies.
    • Potential advantages include reduced invasiveness and enhanced visualization.
    • The described technique contributes to the advancement of thoracic surgical procedures.
