The surgical management of these tumours in newborns changed recently, performing resections in cases with tumour size increase after birth. Minimally invasive procedures were mostly reported in cases without pre-operative image-defined risk factors (IDRFs), defined by vascular and organ involvement. Thoracoscopic resection represents a minority of the overall surgical procedures for neuroblastic tumour management, as the posterior mediastinum is one of the least frequent locations of NB. A thoracoscopic resection was performed on a 22-month-old child with a NB encasing the aorta and a 6-month-old child with the encasement of the left subclavian and vertebral artery. A step-by-step minimally invasive procedure was described, highlighting anatomical landmarks and dissection techniques. The described technique was performed in 130 min. Thoracoscopic resection provided a macroscopic resection without surgical complications and patient was discharged on the 3\n                    <jats:sup>rd<\/jats:sup>\n                    post-operative day.
