    AbstractVideo-assisted thoracoscopic thoracic surgery has the advantages of less physical damage, less postoperative pain, and a rapid recovery. Therefore, it is widely used in the clinic. The quality of nonventilated lung collapse is the key point of thoracoscopic surgery. Poor lung collapse on the operative side damages surgical exposure and prolongs the process of surgery. Therefore, it is important to achieve good lung collapse as soon as possible after opening the pleura. Over the past two decades, there have been reports of advances in research on the physiological mechanism of lung collapse and several kinds of techniques for speeding up lung collapse. This review will inform the advances of each technique, make recommendations for reasonable implementation and discuss their controversies and considerations.
