A case of high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in a patient with previous contralateral pneumonectomy is presented. A 77-year-old man with a right pneumothorax was scheduled for bullectomy by VATS. He had undergone left pneumonectomy due to lung cancer 6 years earlier. Anesthesia was induced and maintained with propofol and fentanyl. The patient was intubated with a normal, single-lumen endotracheal tube (ETT). HFJV was applied through the ETT during the VATS procedure. Although PaCO2 gradually increased from 51.9 mmHg to 80.0 mmHg, appropriate surgical conditions were provided, PaO2 was well preserved, and blood pressure and heart rate were stable throughout the VATS procedure.
