Thoracoscopic surgery approach to mediastinal mature teratomas: a single-center experience

Abstract: Background: Mediastinal mature teratomas are rare tumors with diverse surgical approaches. The aim of this study is to review our experience of thoracoscopic surgery management in patients with teratomas. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 28 consecutive patients with mediastinal mature teratomas who underwent thoracoscopic surgery at Viet Duc University Hospital from January 2008 to August2018. Patients were divided into 2 groups with 2 types of thoracoscopic surgery, closed thoracoscopic surgery (CTS) grou… Show more

“…Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice because of probable complications such as compression of adjacent structures, rupture, or malignant transformation [8]. Complete excision of mediastinal teratoma usually performed through median sternotomy [9] or thoracotomy [10] or thoracoscopy [11], however, excision may be difficult because of tumor large size and adherent to adjacent and vital intrathoracic structure. The tumors of relative size are not too large, well-defined lobulated round mass, and there was no definite invasion to nearby structures, complete surgical resection giving good results without complications [6] and recurrence [12].…”
