Performing a pulmonary segmentectomy is a complex process, with precise localization of
pulmonary nodules and recognition of intraoperative anatomical variations posing …

OBJECTIVES Thoracoscopic segmentectomy is the recommended treatment option for small
peripheral pulmonary nodules. To assess the ability of preoperative three-dimensional (3D) …

Objective Anatomical segmentectomy has been proven to be a viable surgical treatment for
small-size peripheral lung nodules. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction computed …

Background Thoracoscopic segmentectomy is considered to be a safe and effective
procedure for early lung cancer. A three-dimensional (3D) thoracoscope can provide high …

Background An increasing number of lung ground-glass nodules (GGNs) have been
detected ever since low-dose computer tomography started growing in popularity. Three …

Background Despite its popularity in recent years, segmentectomy still faces a challenge:
the accurate delineation of the intersegmental plane, especially in complex segmentectomy …

Objective Identification of anatomic structures are essential for totally thoracoscopic
anatomic pulmonary segmentectomies, however sometimes the procedure are difficulty …

Background The purpose of this study is to explore whether 3D printing has a better clinical
value for making a preoperative plan than three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) …

Objective Three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-
CTBA) can provide detailed imaging information for pulmonary segmentectomy. This study …

Background Compared with lobectomy, the anatomical structure of the lung segment is
relatively complex and easy to occur variation, thus it increases the difficulty and risk of …
