This study analyzed 159 patients with mediastinal benign teratomas across five hospitals from 2014–2024, comparing subxiphoid thoracoscopic surgery with other surgical approaches. Among the 26 patients undergoing subxiphoid surgery, the median operative time was 80 minutes with 20mL of blood loss and 100 percent complete resection rates.
