However, there are only a few reported cases of bullectomy through video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery using a transmediastinal approach for bilateral primary spontaneous pneumothorax. A 20-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with a right pneumothorax and developed a left pneumothorax four days later while he was under treatment. He underwent bilateral bullectomy and pleurodesis via a singleincision video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in the supine position. The patient was discharged uneventfully within 72 h after the procedure. In conclusion, bilateral bullectomy and pleurodesis using single-incision transmediastinal access video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery may be good choices that are technically reliable and provide favorable surgical outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5606\/tgkdc.dergisi.2023.20843","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,18]],"date-time":"2023-09-18T07:34:37Z","timestamp":1695022477000},"page":"295-299","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Wedge resection and pleurodesis through single-incision videothoracoscopic transmediastinal approach for bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax"],"prefix":"10.4274","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Yekta","family":"Altemur Karamustafao\u011flu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fazl\u0131","family":"Yan\u0131k","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yener","family":"Y\u00f6r\u00fck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2811","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref-1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Wu YC, Chu Y, Liu YH, Yeh CH, Chen TP, Liu HP.
