Combined minimally invasive resection of thoracic neurogenic dumbbell tumors: A European case series

Paraspinal tumors are rare neoplasms arising from neurogenic elements of the posterior mediastinum and surgical resection can be challenging. Here, we demonstrate feasibility and outcomes from the first European case series of combined laminectomy and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) resection of thoracic neurogenic dumbbell tumors.A retrospective review of all combined thoracic dumbbell tumor resections performed at our institution...
