Mediastinal cysts, surgical management

Abstract

The surgical technique for expected mediastinal cysts should be selected based on the cysts location, rather than on their size. The main objective is to indicate each mediastinal cyst for VTS (shorter duration of hospitalization) and eventual conversion to thoracotomy does not cause any delays or complications.

Also asymptomatic cysts should be indicated for surgery.
