NIVATS: Non-Intubated Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (NIVATS) is the least invasive approach available. It is part of an optimal Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathway and allows for expanding surgical indications in patients with poor cardio-pulmonary function.
Study summary
The objective of this this single-center prospective longitudinal study is to evaluate the incidence of diaphragmatic dysfunction after non-intubated video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (NIVATS).
Participant will be evaluated during surgery, 2 hours and 24 hours after surgery.

* Mental deficiency or any other reason that may hinder understanding or strict adherence to the protocol
Primary outcome measure(s)
Diaphragmatic excursion — Hour 24 The measurement of diaphragmatic excursion at H2 and H24 constitutes the primary evaluation criterion. Diaphragmatic excursion will be measured by ultrasound using a low-frequency probe (\< 5 MHz), either an abdominal or cardiac probe, positioned under the costal margin on the operated side and the contralateral side. To limit inter-operator variability, the patient's ultrasound evaluation will, as much as possible, be performed by the same operator. The presence of diaphragmatic dysfunction is defined by a diaphragmatic excursion of less than 1 cm.
