Case report of using curved tip electrothermal bipolar coagulation to improve hilar dissection in VATS lobectomy

摘要

IntroductionThoracoscopic lobectomy has gained a pivotal role in the resection of lung cancer. To facilitate the minimally invasive approach, new surgical devices have been developed to help improve the feasibility of performing complex cases. Recently, we adopted the use of a 5 mm curved tip electrothermal bipolar sealing device.
