As surgeons we are living in an amazing era. Rapid advances in technology transform our surgeries in countless ways. After 20 years the first uniportal VATS were performed (1-3), the procedure has its own space in the thoracic surgery (4), and this special issue takes the readers to reflect on the exciting recent development and future expectations of this modern and futuristic surgical approach.
