Abstract
Thoracoscopy of pediatric patients has evolved from diagnostic lung biopsy to a myriad of both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. In this chapter, we discuss those procedures related to the child's lung which are most commonly performed: lung biopsy; resection of bronchogenic cysts, pulmonary sequestrations, and pulmonary lobes; and the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax.
