Pulmonary Lipoma in an Atypical Location of the Pulmonary Fissure, Extirpated by Uniportal VATS – Case Report and Review of Literature

Lipomas are common benign tumours characterised by soft moveable masses throughout various locations in the body. However, atypical localisation of the pulmonary fissure is uncommon. Herein is reported a rare case of a female with an asymptomatic lesion in the pulmonary fissure of the left lung, extracted by single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, with a good clinical and radiologic outcome. Single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery technique with a brief review of relevant literature will be discussed.
