Videothoracoscopic removal of a mediastinal teratoma
The American Surgeon
|May 1, 1997
Abstract:
We describe a case of a mature mediastinal teratoma resected by videothoracoscopy. This new procedure, now widely adopted for many intrathoracic conditions, has proved to be easy, safe, and advantageous also in the treatment of rare tumors, such as mature mediastinal teratomas. We recommend its use in all cases like the one described.
