Large lesions of the thoracic inlet represent a significant challenge to surgeons due to their close relationship with important adjacent neurovascular structures. We report a case of neurofibromatosis type 1 presented with a large neurofibroma located in the right thoracic inlet, and a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor in the right clavicle and treated with a hybrid thoracoscopic anterior transclavicular approach to remove the tumors. Combination of thoracoscopic and minimal chest wall resection may serve as a feasible option for resection of the large and benign thoracic inlet tumor in a way of minimal invasiveness and safety.
