Abstract:
A nonpalpable rib tumor is very difficult to localize accurately, so a skin incision is also difficult to design. Many methods have been discussed but most of them have some disadvantages such as inaccurate localization, the need to create another incision and not being generally useful for most patients. We offer one method of intraoperative localization in the hybrid operative room (OR). In our experience, it took a short time and had great accuracy, thus we could minimize the skin incision.
