비데오 흉강경을 이용한 종격동 종양 절제술;2례 보고

We have experienced two cases of video thoracosopic excision of mediastinal tumors at the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, Yonsei University, College of medicine. Histologically the mediastinal tumors were cystic thymoma in one & bronchogenic cyst in another. The operative times were rather short and the post-operative courses were not eventful. These patients were discharged with less chest discomforts in post-operative 5 days & have been in good conditions to now.
