Minimally invasive oesophagectomy and emerging complications: Intercostal lung hernia

Περίληψη:
Lung herniation is a rare entity, defined as a protrusion of the lung above the normal confines of thorax; it is caused by increased intrathoracic pressure and defects or weakness of the chest wall. Intercostal lung hernia can occur spontaneously or following thoracic trauma or surgery. Postoperative hernias are more commonly associated with less extensive surgical procedures, such as thoracoscopic surgery or mini-thoracotomy incisions, rather than with major thoracic procedures. We describe the first reported case of postoperative intercostal lung hernia following two-stage totally minimally invasive oesophagectomy for cancer, together with its successful surgical repair. © 2020 Royal College of Surgeons of England.
