• In the last years the video-assisted thoracic surgery (V.A.T.S.) assumed an important order for the diagnosis and treatment of the pleural disease. In this particular field, the procedure allows obtaining almost the same outcomes of traditional surgery and is very safety. V.A.T.S. reduces hospital time and trauma with a fast return to the working life. The Authors describe their experience and outline the diagnostic and therapeutic indications for the treatment of choice and emergency.
