Successful natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) procedures have been reported in animal studies. However, very little is known about the optimal approach for the application of these surgeries in the thoracic cavity. This study presents the feasibility of transtracheal evaluation of pleural cavity in a canine model using the NOTES technique.
