Background: Since a displaced bronchus related to the left upper lobe is an uncommon anatomical anomaly, it has a risk of being accidentally resected during left upper lobe resection unless they are identified preoperatively. A case of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) segmentectomy that was safely performed under preoperative identification of a displaced subsegmental bronchus and anomalous pulmonary vessels is presented.
Case Presentation: A 48-year-old woman visited our hospital because of an abnormal shadow on a radiograph on a health check.
