The first experience of thoracoscopic anatomical combined pulmonary subsegmentectomy
Anatomical lung resection is the standard treatment for primary lung tumors. In patients with metastatic lung lesions, wedge resection may be feasible for subpleural lesions, but reliable localization by thoracoscopy may be difficult for deeply located nodules. Wedge resection via thoracotomy may be...

| Summary: | Anatomical lung resection is the standard treatment for primary lung tumors. In patients with metastatic lung lesions, wedge resection may be feasible for subpleural lesions, but reliable localization by thoracoscopy may be difficult for deeply located nodules. Wedge resection via thoracotomy may be unfeasible. We present the first observation in Russian literature of successful thoracoscopic anatomical subsegmentectomy in a patient with a solitary lung metastasis from breast cancer in the upper lobe of the right lung. |
