Abstract

Report of the first uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy live surgeries course in Jordan. Live surgeries were performed in collaboration between Dr. Diego Gonzalez-Rivas and our Thoracic/Pulmonary Team at Istishari Hospital in Jordan. Such experience will pave the way for more thoracic surgeons to embrace the newest of the less-invasive thoracic surgical techniques in Jordan.
