Background: Video-assisted modified segmentectomy is segmental resection using an end-
stapler without regards to anatomical broncho-segmental planes. This procedure is effective …

Current evidence indicates that radical sublobar resection (segmentectomy and wedge
resection) should be considered as an alternative for cT1N0 lung cancer of 2 cm or less …

Pulmonary segmentectomy has become a good option for small peripheral non-small cell
lung cancers and is currently being evaluated in a large North American randomized study …

Background Lung segmentectomy is an option for the treatment of noninvasive or minimally
invasive lung cancer. For tumors located in the left upper division (LUD), LUD …

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of 320-detector row
computed tomography (CT) with that of 64-detector row CT for three-dimensional …

Objectives In preoperative segmentectomy simulation for primary lung cancer, it is important
to identify the intersegmental pulmonary veins and the relationship between them and the …

OBJECTIVES: Anatomic segmentectomy is increasingly being considered as a means of
achieving an R0 resection for peripheral, small, stage I non–small-cell lung cancer. In the …

Objective: To improve the postoperative results of limited resection for small lung cancer, we
have developed a new operative method, pulmonary artery-guided segmentectomy. This …

Experience reported in the literature increasingly supports the notion that segmentectomy is
comparable with lobectomy for small tumors (≤ 2 cm), provided that the lesion is located …

OBJECTIVE: Segmentectomy is an anatomic parenchyma-sparing resection that is recently
being performed for small-sized lung carcinoma and constitutes a useful procedure in a …
