To assess surgical outcomes in synchronous multiple primary lung cancer (SMPLC) and correlations with clinicopathological features and prognostic/predictive factors.We retrospectively reviewed patients diagnosed with early-stage nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) between January 2006 and June 2012. In total, 564 patients with resectable NSCLC underwent a preoperative positron emission tomography-computed tomography scan followed by anatomic resection.

We describe our experience of computed tomography (CT)-guided needle puncture localization of indeterminate pulmonary nodules prior to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).
Methods: From January 2011 to July 2014, 78 consecutive patients underwent CT-guided marking for the localization of 91 small pulmonary nodules.
