a. Chest CT indicates the right-sided giant enteric cyst (Asterisk). In this case, we preferred open surgery to performed complete resection. b. A much smaller enteric cyst is observed than in the previous case (Arrow). Therefore, we have preferred VATS for the excision of this cystic lesion. c. Thorax CT image of the left-sided congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation is seen (Asterisk). The left upper lobectomy was performed. d. This thorax CT belongs to the patient with an esophagus duplication cyst (Asterisk). Arrow indicates the wall of the esophagus. There is no contraindication, but these areas of the mediastinum are challenging localizations for the VATS procedure. Thus, we preferred open surgery in this case
