Minimally invasive techniques in thoracic surgery have made great progress over the past 20 years and are still evolving. Many surgical procedures performed with large thoracotomy incisions in the past can now be performed with much smaller incisions. With many studies, the advantages of minimally invasive surgery have been clearly seen, and thus its use has become widespread worldwide. Today, minimally invasive surgical methods have become the first choice in the diagnosis and treatment of lung, pleural and mediastinal pathologies. Minimally invasive approaches in thoracic surgery include many different techniques and applications. In this chapter, current minimally invasive techniques in thoracic surgery are discussed and important points are emphasized in the light of the current literature.

A video-assisted right pneumonectomy is a challenging but feasible procedure in expert hands. This video tutorial presents in detail the indications for and the individual surgical steps needed to safely perform a biportal video-assisted right pneumonectomy. In selected patients, this technique guarantees the same oncological results in terms of the perioperative outcome as those achieved by minimally invasive surgery.
