    Abstract The thoracotomy incision is essential for many thoracic surgery procedures. A number of different variations exist, and different techniques can be used, depending both on the patient and on the technical factors. The muscle-sparing technique was first described by Noirclerc et al. in 1973. [1] Initially, it was thought that preservation of the muscular structures compared with the results of a traditional posterolateral thoracotomy, in which the latissimus dorsi and sometimes the serratus anterior are often divided, would benefit long-term outcomes.  However, subsequent study results  have not demonstrated any difference in postoperative outcomes. The unequivocal benefit of a muscle-sparing approach is to preserve the latissimus dorsi for any future intervention, such as a procedure involving the chest wall and the intrathoracic flaps. In this video tutorial, we describe our approach to this commonly used incision, including the anatomy and the technical aspects used to provide optimal operative exposure and minimal postoperative complications while preserving the underlying musculature.

    Abstract Spontaneous haemothorax due to vasculopathy in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 is rare but life-threatening. A 56-year-old lady with neurofibromatosis type 1 presented with right-sided chest pain, dyspnoea, and collapse. Computed tomography showed a right-sided hemothorax. Urgent angiography showed contrast leakage from a right subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm. A Gore Viabahn endovascular stent graft was deployed. Completion angiography revealed satisfactory haemostasis. She underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic evacuation of the hemothorax, with good results. This case highlights a novel approach to managing a rare emergency, using combined procedures.

    Abstract We report the case of a 64-year-old male patient with a prosthetic aortic valve who presented with clinical features of endocarditis confirmed by transoesophageal echocardiography. His blood cultures were positive for a very rare and newly described organism-Kytococcus schroeteri. The patient underwent aortic valve replacement and a 6-week course of intravenous antibiotics. This is the fifth reported case of endocarditis associated with this organism.

    Abstract We report a case of recurrent chest wall abscesses overlying a right thoracotomy scar four years after a pneumonectomy for a right middle lobe bronchus squamous cell carcinoma. Exploration of the abscess cavities revealed no intra-thoracic or intra-abdominal communication. The patient developed sinuses in his thoracotomy scar and two years later, two gallstones were expelled from these sinuses. A cholecystocutaneous fistula was confirmed on a fistulogram.

    Abstract We present a case of a nonfunctioning intrapericardial paraganglioma that presented as a typical chest pain in a 51-year-old woman. The tumor was initially diagnosed on coronary angiography where it had direct irrigation from the right coronary artery. Further computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans showed significant compression of the superior vena cava by the tumor. This was excised through median sternotomy and extracorporeal circulation. Histopathological examination of the mass was characteristic of a paraganglioma.

    Abstract Coronary arteriovenous fistula is a rare congenital anomaly that is seen in 0.1 % to 0.2% of coronary angiograms. Aneurysmal formation in the fistula is even rarer. We report a case of congenital circumflex arteriovenous fistula with aneurysmal formation just near its termination in the pulmonary artery, associated with atherosclerotic left anterior descending coronary artery. The anomaly was successfully repaired.

    Abstract The case presented is of prosthetic aortic valve endocarditis in a 23-year-old male patient, complicated by an inflammatory periprosthetic valvular leak, and fistula formation between the aorta and the right atrium. The fistulous tract was diagnosed intraoperatively. Closure of the fistula was performed successfully in concordance with re-replacement of the aortic valve.
