Thoracoscopy: origins revisited
Abstract
The ways in which thoracoscopy has evolved wonderfully illustrate how a diagnostic and therapeutic technique can transcend a particular medical or surgical subspecialty. In this review, an in-depth history is provided to enable readers to better understand the nature of minimally invasive endoscopic pleural imaging techniques.
