This book covers topics range from conventional VATS or robotic surgery to uniportal VATS, as well as emerging techniques such as non-intubated or subxiphoid approaches. Keeping in mind that the medical oncology advances at a neck-breaking speed through the development of new chemotherapy, with lesser toxicity and major effectiveness as well as radio therapeutic techniques such as the SBRT; the role of a surgeon is to offer the patient the best oncologic procedure with the least surgical aggressiveness and anaesthetics.
