Background: The precision of segmentectomy/subsegmentectomy for ground glass opacity (GGO)-dominant cT1a-bN0 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including mono-segmentectomy, mono-subsegmentectomy, combined subsegmentectomies, and single segmentectomy with adjacent subsegmentectomy, has improved. The aim of this study is to investigate their positional indications by focusing on the three-dimensional location of lesions, utilizing three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 195 patients with GGO-dominant cT1a-bN0 NSCLC who underwent segmentectomy/subsegmentectomy between August 2015 and November 2020.

Background: The outcomes of segmentectomy for small (≤2 cm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have been well demonstrated. This study aimed to investigate whether segmentectomy could achieve comparable oncologic outcomes with lobectomy for >2-3 cm lung cancer.
Methods: Patients who underwent segmentectomy or lobectomy for NSCLC >2-3 cm were retrospectively screened.

Background: The combination of three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology and near-infrared fluorescence (NIF) technology using indocyanine green (ICG) has demonstrated significant potential in enhancing surgical margin and safety, as well as simplifying segmental resection. However, there is limited literature available on the integrated use of these techniques. The current study assessed the effectiveness and value of integrating 3DP-NIF technologies in the perioperative outcomes of thoracoscopic segmental lung resection.

Purpose: Preoperative evaluation of pulmonary vascular and tracheal routes and variations is of great importance to the surgeon. Three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA) has evolved in recent years with the optimization of 3D reconstruction techniques and artificial intelligence. We aim to apply CT angiography and Exoview 3D reconstruction technology to assess patients' pulmonary arterial tree and its anatomical variants and to try to summarize a set of anatomical typing of the pulmonary arterial tree that is relatively easy and conducive to promoting teaching based on surgical habits of lobectomy.
