We describe a method of single-port thoracoscopic rib resection using a Gigli saw. Rib resection is typically performed with a large skin incision and soft tissue dissection. Some authors have described a thoracoscopic approach for rib resection from the inner side of the chest wall instead of the outside to decrease pain and improve quality of life. A 41-year-old Chinese male received single-port thoracoscopic rib resection with satisfactory recovery. We present the technique, which may expand the indications of single-port thoracoscopic procedures.
我们描述了一种使用线锯进行单孔胸腔镜肋骨切除术的方法。肋骨切除术通常通过大的皮肤切口和软组织分离来进行。一些作者描述了一种从胸壁内侧而非外侧进行肋骨切除的胸腔镜手术方法，以减轻疼痛并提高生活质量。一名41岁的中国男性接受了单孔胸腔镜肋骨切除术，恢复情况良好。我们展示了这项技术，它可能会扩大单孔胸腔镜手术的适应症。
