Infrasternal mediastinoscopic single-incision surgery is a minimally invasive surgical option for patients with anterior mediastinal lesions. The main drawback of the procedure is difficult when handling the endoscopic instruments through the small infrasternal incision. Herein, we report our initial experience with use of the procedure in 2 patients with bronchogenic cysts in the anterior mediastinum. We found that use of an SILS Port, now widely available for single-incision laparoscopic surgery, can decrease the difficulty of this approach.
胸骨下纵隔镜单切口手术是前纵隔病变患者的一种微创手术选择。该手术的主要缺点是通过小的胸骨下切口操作内镜器械时困难。在此，我们报告我们在2例前纵隔支气管囊肿患者中使用该手术的初步经验。我们发现，使用目前广泛应用于单切口腹腔镜手术的单孔腹腔镜手术端口（SILS Port）可降低该手术方法的难度。
