Summary

This study seeks to establish if thoracoscopic surgery performed through a single port or incision reduces early post-operative pain compared with conventional multiple port thoracoscopic surgery. This initial pilot study is designed to establish whether a trial of the two techniques is acceptable to patients, clinically feasible and can be delivered in a reasonable timescale.
