Abstract It remains unclear whether non-intubated video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is comparable or advantageous compared with conventional intubated VATS. Thus, we systematically assessed the feasibility and safety of non-intubated VATS compared with intubated VATS perioperatively for the treatment of different thoracic diseases. An extensive search of literature databases was conducted. Perioperative outcomes were compared between 2 types of operations. The time trend of the overall results was evaluated through a cumulative meta-analysis. Subgroup analyses of different thoracic diseases and study types were examined. Twenty-seven studies including 2537 patients were included in the analysis. A total of 1283 patients underwent non-intubated VATS; intubated VATS was performed on the other 1254 patients. Overall, the non-intubated VATS group had fewer postoperative overall complications [odds ratios (OR) 0.505; P < 0.001]; shorter postoperative fasting times [standardized mean difference (SMD) −2.653; P < 0.001]; shorter hospital stays (SMD −0.581; P < 0.001); shorter operative times (SMD −0.174; P = 0.041); shorter anaesthesia times (SMD −0.710; P < 0.001) and a lower mortality rate (OR 0.123; P = 0.020). Non-intubated VATS may be a safe and feasible alternative to intubated VATS and provide a more rapid postoperative rehabilitation time than conventional intubated VATS.

Abstract Objective To investigate whether laryngeal mask anesthesia had more favorable postoperative outcomes than double-lumen tube intubation anesthesia in uniportal thoracoscopic thymectomy. Methods Data were collected retrospectively from December 2013 to December 2017. A total of 96 patients with anterior mediastinum mass underwent nonintubated uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy with laryngeal mask, and 129 patients underwent intubated uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy. A single incision of ∼3 cm was made in an intercostal space along the anterior axillary line. Perioperative outcomes between nonintubated uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (NU-VATS) and intubated uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (IU-VATS) were compared. Results In both groups, incision size was kept to a minimum, with a median of 3 cm, and complete thymectomy was performed in all patients. Mean operative time was 61 minutes. The mean lowest SpO2 during operation was not significantly different. However, the mean peak end-tidal carbon dioxide in the NU-VATS group was higher than in the IU-VATS group. Mean chest tube duration in NU-VATS group was 1.9 days. Mean postoperative hospital stay was 2.5 days, with a range of 1 to 4 days. Time to oral fluid intake in the NU-VATS group was significantly less than in the IU-VATS group (p < 0.01). Several complications were significantly less in the NU-VATS group than in the IU-VATS group, including sore throat, nausea, irritable cough, and urinary retention. Conclusion Compared with intubated approach, nonintubated uniportal thoracoscopic thymectomy with laryngeal mask is feasible for anterior mediastinum lesion, and patients recovered faster with less complications.

Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to compare early outcome between intercostal uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (IU-VATS) versus subxiphoid uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SU-VATS) in thymectomy for non-myasthenic early-stage thymoma. Method Retrospective analysis of 76 cases completed in our hospital from May 2018 to September 2019 with subxiphoid uniportal thoracoscopic thymectomy; a single incision of ∼3 cm was made ∼1 cm under the xiphoid process. The control group included 213 patients who received intercostal uniportal thoracoscopic thymectomy from August 2015, and propensity score matching was conducted. All patients who were clinically diagnosed with thymic tumor before surgery were treated with thymectomy. Perioperative outcomes between SU-VATS (n = 76) and IU-VATS, n = 76 were compared. Result After propensity score matching, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of age, gender, disease stage, maximal tumor size, or other baseline demographic and clinical variables. All operation was successfully completed; there were no significant differences in the operative time (88 vs. 81 minutes, p = 0.63), intraoperative blood loss (55 vs. 46 mL, p = 0.47), postoperative drainage time (2.2 vs. 2.5 days, p = 0.72), and postoperative hospital stay (3.2 vs. 3.4 days, p = 0.78) between the two groups. The visual analog scale (VAS) on postoperative days 1, 3, 7, and 30 was less in the SU-VATS group than that in the IU-VATS group. The VAS on days 60 and 180 did not differ significantly between the two groups. Conclusion Thymectomy using SU-VATS is a feasible procedure; it might reduce early postoperative pain and lead to faster recovery.

Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery

Abstract Background: Non-intubated video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (NIVATS) is increasingly performed in different types of thoracic procedures. Based on the anesthetic perspective, the outcomes of this method are limited. General anesthesia with intubation and controlled ventilation for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (IVATS) is a standard technique. The current study aimed to compare the pulmonary gas exchange between NIVATS and IVATS, with a focus on desaturation event.Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted at Vajira Hospital. Data were collected from the hospital medical record database between January 9, 2019, and May 15, 2020. A propensity score-matched analysis was used to adjust the confounders by indications and contraindication between NIVATS and IVATS. The perioperative outcomes of VATS and NIVATS were compared by the regression analysis method.Results: In total, 180 patients were included in the analysis. There were 98 and 82 patients in the NIVATS and IVATS groups, respectively. After a propensity score matching, the number of patients with similar characteristics decreased to 52 per group. None of the patients in both groups experienced desaturation. The lowest oxygen saturation of the NIVATS and IVATS groups did not significantly differ (96.5% vs. 99%, respectively; p = 0.185). The NIVATS group had a significantly higher ETco2 peak than the IVATS group (43 vs. 36 mmHg, respectively; p < 0.001). According to the regression analysis, the NIVATS group had a significantly shorter anesthetic induction time (Mean difference (MD) = -5.135 min (95 % CI = (- 8.878)- (-1.391)) and lower volume of blood loss (MD =-75.565 ml (95%CI = (- 131.08) - (- 20.65) but a higher intraoperative ETCO2 than the IVATS group (MD = 4.561 mmHg (95%CI=1.852 - 7.269). Four patients in the NIVATS group required conversion to intubation due to difficulties encountered when using the surgical technique (7.7%, p = 0.041). Seven patients in the IVATS group, but none in the NIVATS group, presented with sore throat (13.5% vs. 0%, respectively; p = 0.006). Moreover, none of the patients in both groups experienced postoperative pneumonia, underwent reoperation, or died.Conclusions: The anesthetic and surgical outcomes of NIVATS were comparable to those of IVATS.
