Both patients underwent thoracoscopic treatment in which the abscess was opened, debrided, and lavaged with a combination of sharp dissection and use of a vessel\u2010sealing device. One patient required partial conversion from total thoracoscopic treatment to a thoracoscopic\u2010assisted approach due to limited visualization of the caudal mediastinum.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Both dogs recovered uneventfully from surgery and were discharged 3 and 4\u2009days postoperatively. Case 1 was re\u2010evaluated with their primary veterinarian 7\u2009days postoperatively and was reported to be doing very well. Case 2 returned 69\u2009days postoperatively for examination and thoracic radiographs. Physical examination was unremarkable and thoracic radiography identified mildly increased soft tissue opacity in the region of the esophagus. Telephone follow\u2010up with both owners 7\u2009months postoperatively revealed return to normal activity, and normal breathing.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>VATS appeared to be a feasible surgical approach for treatment of CMPA in dogs.
