    Abstract The uniportal VATS approach is now taking the lead in the practice of thoracic surgery and is transforming the way we operate. We describe here how to perform a uniportal VATS debridement and decortication, with a special focus on tips and tricks for getting inside an empyema pouch and identifying the optimal plane of cleavage for decortication.

    Abstract A best evidence topic was constructed according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was whether video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), compared to open lung resection, resulted in improved postoperative clinical outcomes, in patients with localized bronchiectasis indicated for surgery. A total of 1352 papers were found using the reported search, of which 5 papers represented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The authors, journal, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes and results of these papers are tabulated. All of the identified studies were retrospective. The conversion rate from VATS to open procedure ranged from 0% to 15.3%. In comparison to thoracotomy, VATS resulted in a significant reduction of postoperative blood loss (1 study), length of hospital stay (2 studies), postoperative complication rate (2 studies), pain scales (2 studies) and chest tube duration (1 study). However, there was a significant increase in operative time (1 study) and whole cost (2 studies). There was no significant difference in the clinical recovery, which was defined by the disappearance or improvement of preoperative symptoms during the follow-up period (3 studies). We conclude that although there is limited high-level evidence, retrospective studies have suggested that VATS could significantly reduce complications rate, postoperative blood loss, pain scales, length of hospital stay and chest tube duration compared to open lung resection in selected patients with localized bronchiectasis.

    Abstract Spinal ganglioneuroma occurs mostly in the thoracic spine causing various manifestations including scoliosis that can be misdiagnosed as idiopathic scoliosis. Few reports exist in the literature on the diagnosis and management of scoliosis secondary to huge ganglioneuroma and usually staged treatment is preferred. In this report, we present a 17-year-old female patient presented with back pain, lower limbs numbness, spinal deformity, and shortness of breath. Plain X-rays showed a 50° right thoracic scoliotic curve. MRI and chest CT revealed a huge extra pulmonary mass shifting the mediastinum with intra spinal extension through the left neural foramina compressing the spinal cord. Percutaneous US guided needle biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of ganglioneuroma. One-stage posterior instrumented correction of scoliosis, spinal cord decompression, and excision of the whole mass from the mediastinum and the spine through posterior approach was done for the patient with smooth postoperative recovery. Chest CT scan was done 2 years after surgery and excluded any local recurrence.

    Abstract Uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is the emerging technique in the modern thoracic surgery practice in Assiut University Hospitals in Egypt we try to keep up with the cutting edge of knowledge to deliver the best available service to our patient. So we invite Dr. Diego Gonzalez-Rivas the world pioneer surgeon in uniportal VATS approach to initiate a uniportal VATS program starting with a workshop with live surgery. The workshop was attended by 84 thoracic surgeons from all across Egypt with a high motivation for adopting the technique in the everyday practice. We believe that uniportal will be the first choice approach for thoracic surgeon in Egypt in the upcoming year.

    Abstract Background: burnout syndrome is a serious and growing problem among medical staff. Its adverse outcomes not only affect health-care providers' health, but also extend to their patients, resulting in bad-quality care. The COVID-19 pandemic puts frontline health-care providers at greater risk of psychological stress and burnout syndrome.
    Objectives: this study aimed to identify the levels of burnout among health-care professionals currently working at Assiut University hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Methods: the current study adopted an online cross-sectional design using the SurveyMonkey
    Results: about one-third, two-thirds, and one-quarter of the respondents had high emotional exhaustion, high depersonalization, and low personal accomplishment, respectively. Younger, resident, and single physicians reported higher burnout scores. The personal accomplishment score was significantly higher among males. Those working more than eight hours/day and dealing with COVID-19 patients had significantly higher scores.
    Conclusion: during the COVID-19 pandemic, a high prevalence of burnout was recorded among physicians. Age, job title, working duration, and working hours/day were significant predictors for burnout syndrome subscale results. Preventive and interventive programs should be applied in health-care organizations during pandemics.
