Minimally invasive video-assisted thoracoscopic surgeries (VATS) are gaining popularity over conventional open surgeries. Recent advances in this field aim to reduce port numbers for less postoperative pain and recovery duration. Here, we describe a new surgical technique of uniporter VATS with a peri areolar approach for the management of recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax. This technique yields superior cosmetic results with an easy access to the pleural cavity.
