The technique of medial-basal segment (S)-sparing basal segmentectomy has not previously been reported. Herein we report the technical details of thoracoscopic anatomical basal segmentectomy preserving S in patients with Bab branching pattern.

Uniportal thoracoscopic posterior basal (S10) segmentectomy using a posterior approach.

Performing a posterior basal (S10) segmentectomy through a single port is challenging because of the dorsal location of the S10 segment in the lower lobe. The vessels and bronchi to be resected are located deep and away from the major fissure, which makes exposure from the interlobar fissure difficult. To avoid unnecessary parenchymal splitting and potential misrecognition of segmental structures, we performed a uniportal thoracoscopic S10 segmentectomy via a posterior approach without extensively separating the pulmonary parenchyma from the interlobar fissure.

A 78-year-old male who was undergoing treatment for diabetes was referred to our department after a chest X-ray revealed an abnormal shadow in the left upper lung field. A chest contrast-enhanced CT showed a tumor in the left upper lobe and a cystic lesion in the left lower lobe. Two aberrant arteries branching from the aorta were identified near the cyst.

Article Synopsis
- * The procedure involves several key steps, including retracting the lower lobe, exposing and dissecting the segmental vein and artery, and cutting the segmental bronchus.
- * To successfully execute this approach, surgeons should use a specific inverted view during the procedure and can benefit from pre-operative simulations with 3D computed tomography (3D-CT).

Background: Intensified systemic chemotherapy following minimally invasive surgery for patients with unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer is performed to achieve curative resection and improve quality of life. We report a case of initially unresectable rectal cancer with metastases treated with laparoscopic and thoracoscopic staged resections after triplet chemotherapy plus bevacizumab.
Case: A 71-year-old man was referred to our hospital to examine the cause of constipation.
