Objective

To evaluate the clinical value of subxiphoid approach in videoassistedthoracoscopicresection of anterior mediastinal tumor .

Methods

From January 2016 to June 2019 ,23 patients with anterior mediastinal tumor all underwent thoracoscopic tumorresection surgeries ,among which 18 patients received unilateral thoracoscopic surgery (control group) and 5 patients received subxiphoidthoracoscopic surgery ( research group) .

Results

All the patients in the two groups successfully completed the operation according to their predetermined method .One case in the research group suffered mediastinal tumorsencroaching on the left upperlung , and wedge resection of the left upper lung was performed at the same time .There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss ,length of hospital stay , and drainage tube indwelling time between the two groups ( P>0 .05) ,however ,there were significant differences in operative time ( P<0 .05) ,and postoperative pain score at 24 h ( P<0 .05) .None of the patients underwent postoperative bleeding and secondary thoracotomy ,and one patient in the control group got postoperative left eyelid droop , whichimproved after follow-up .

Conclusions

The subxiphoid approach in video-assistedthoracoscopicresection of anterior mediastinal tumor is safe ,feasible and has obvious advantages and shall be popularized .
