The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) clinical practice guideline of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in 2018 points out that anatomic pulmonary resection is a preferred option for early stage NSCLC. With the development of video-assisted thoracoscopy, minimally invasive thoracic surgery represented by thoracoscopy has been widely used in clinical practice. Video-assisted thoracoscopic segmentectomy has become one of the treatment options for early stage NSCLC. Clinical studies have found that sublobar resection can achieve similar results and preserve more pulmonary function in the treatment of early stage NSCLC compared with lobectomy, but the changes of pulmonary function after segmentectomy are still controversial. This article focuses on the research progress of pulmonary function changes in NSCLC patients after video-assisted thoracoscopic segmentectomy. .

: Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is associated with less postoperative pain than traditional open thoracotomy. However, trocar and chest tube placement may damage the intercostal nerves, causing significant discomfort. An ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is a promising mode of pain management; this reduces the need for opioids and the associated side-effects.

Background: Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is widely used in lung cancer surgery, as this technique causes less pain and faster recovery than open thoracotomy. However, significant postoperative pain persists in a number of patients, often leading to increased opioid use and opioid-related adverse events in addition to prolonged admission times. Perioperatively administered glucocorticoids have been demonstrated effective in reducing pain after other types of surgeries, but the effect in VATS remains unclear.

Background: Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is a common complication following video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) that significantly impacts the quality of life of patients. Although multiple risk factors have been identified, no systematically validated prediction model exists to guide clinical decision-making.
Objectives: This study aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model for CPSP in patients undergoing VATS for lung cancer.

Background: The aim of this study was to compare the surgical efficacy of one-stage and two-stage video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for bilateral multiple pulmonary nodules (BMPNs).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was made of 156 patients, 84 who underwent one-stage and 72 who underwent two-stage VATS for BMPNs at our department between January 2019 and December 2022. Perioperative and long-term outcomes were compared between the two groups using propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis.

Background: Ipsilateral shoulder pain (ISP) is a common complication following video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), significantly affecting postoperative recovery and quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between intraoperative upper limb positioning, and the occurrence of ISP, with the goal of optimizing positioning to reduce postoperative complications.
Methods: This prospective cohort study included 252 patients undergoing VATS for lung resection.
