Strengths for the Awards✨

  1. Innovative Surgical Technique

    • Introduces a novel “Single Surgeon + Single Site” thoracoscopic approach for pediatric extralobar pulmonary sequestration (ELS), reducing incisions, operative time, and resource use compared to multi-portal VATS (M-VATS).

    • Addresses limitations of existing techniques (e.g., U-VATS) by enabling artificial pneumothorax and minimizing instrument interference.

  2. Clinical Impact

    • Demonstrates superior outcomes: Shorter operative time (41.8 vs. 53.7 min), reduced blood loss (2.7 vs. 4.1 mL), and shorter hospital stays (3.7 vs. 6.5 days) compared to M-VATS.

    • Cost-effective: Lower expenses ($4,228 vs. $4,978) due to fewer consumables and no need for surgical assistants.

  3. Technical Feasibility

    • Successful implementation in 18 patients with no conversions to open surgery or major complications (e.g., bronchopleural fistulas).

    • Adaptability to complex cases (e.g., intra-diaphragmatic ELS with diaphragmatic repair).

  4. Alignment with Modern Surgical Trends

    • Promotes minimally invasive and enhanced recovery protocols, aligning with global shifts toward less traumatic pediatric surgeries.

  5. Rigor and Transparency

    • Retrospective design but includes clear statistical analysis and comparative data.

    • Ethical approval and informed consent were obtained.

Education 🎓
