Case description

In this video we show a challenging left lower lobectomy in a patient with recurrent hemoptysis and infections. The lower lobe was destroyed due to bronquiectasis so the case was proposed for surgery. The patient had important comorbidities so a 3 cm incision was performed and the left lower lobe was removed through the least invasive approach possible (uniportal VATS). The postoperative course of the patient was uneventful
