This educational video is provided to you by the European Respiratory Society. It demonstrates how to perform 'medical thoracoscopy' or 'pleuroscopy', introduced 100 years ago, which is used for diagnosis and treatment of pleural diseases and which today belongs to the field of interventional pulmonology.

Using scissors through the operative thoracoscope working channel, and with slight movements of the gastroscope for esophageal traction, a safe blunt dissection of esophagus was carried out. The steps for esophagectomy are shown. The specimen was removed perorally. Source: C. Rolanda et al; Endoscopy 2011; 43(1): 14-20: Peroral esophageal segmentectomy and anastomosis with single transthoracic trocar: a step forward in thoracic NOTES A hybrid approach in thoracic NOTES (natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery) could work as an intermediate step before pure transesophageal NOTES. It can reduce the number of transthoracic ports and simultaneously minimize the limitations and risks of a pure transesophageal approach. This study in a porcine model explores the combination of the peroral route with a single transthoracic port for a complex intrathoracic procedure. Read more www.thieme-connect.com
