Uniportal VATS lobectomies—masterclass in Bratislava

On February 5–6, an event on uniportal VATS approach to pulmonary resections took place in Bratislava. It focused on developing uniportal VATS technique. The two-day event gave opportunity to discuss the topic with masters of thoracic surgery such as Prof. Hasan Batirel and Diego Gonzalez, to train basic skills on simulators developed by Dr. Tomaz Stupnik and to watch live surgery performed by Diego Gonzalez. Two patients underwent uniportal VATS lobectomy. This event was another step to advance miniinvasive major pulmonary procedures.
