Introduction Minimally invasive approaches to lung resection have become widely
acceptable and more recently, segmentectomy has demonstrated equivalent oncologic …

Objectives Anatomical segmentectomy via robotic thoracic surgery and video-assisted
thoracic surgery (VATS) are minimally invasive surgical approaches for treatment of early …

Background Segmentectomy is increasingly performed for non–small cell lung cancer.
However, comparative outcomes data among open, robotic-assisted, and video-assisted …

Objective The use of segmentectomy for peripheral T≤ 2 cm, N0 non-small cell lung cancer
(NSCLC) has increased in the last decade. We sought to compare clinical outcomes and …

Background Quality of oncologic resection for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer
(NSCLC) may differ by surgical approach. Minimally invasive surgery has become the …

Pulmonary lobectomy has been historically the gold standard oncologic resection for early
stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Pulmonary segmentectomy has gained …

Background Previous studies have raised concerns that video-assisted thoracoscopic
(VATS) lobectomy may compromise nodal evaluation. The advantages or limitations of …

Background Pulmonary segmentectomy provides an anatomic lung resection while avoiding
removal of excess normal lung tissue. This may be beneficial in patients with minimal …

Objectives Lobectomy may unnecessarily resect healthy lung parenchyma in Stage 1A non-
small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). Segmentectomies may provide a lung-sparing option …

Background There is rising interest among thoracic surgeons in anatomical segmental
resection for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In the current study we …
