Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery

Patients with clinical T1aN0M0 Non-Small Cell Carcinoma (NSCLC) or poor pulmonary function may benefit more from segmentectomy compared to lobectomy. However, there is question about segmentectomy provides not enough safe margin, especially for nodules situated at the intersegmental area. We describe a novel technique using image-guided Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (iVATS) to accomplish extended segmentectomy for central lung nodules. This technique helps to overcome the challenges of nodules situated at the intersegmental area.
