This tutorial shows the resection of a bulla by uniportal video assisted thoracoscopic surgery in bullous lung disease. This disease is a benign condition requiring treatment in cases of severe dyspnea, spontaneous secondary pneumothorax, repeated infection, hemoptysis, and an increase in bulla size. The uniportal VATS approach results in less pain, better cosmoses, and a quicker recovery for the patient.
