A 58-year-old man whose right lung had been removed due to lung cancer underwent thoracoscopic partial lobectomy of the left lung. Anesthesia was maintained with intravenous propofol and thoracic epidural block. During the surgery, respirations were controlled by high frequency jet ventilation. There was no intraoperative hypoxia. The postoperative course was uneventful.
