Anatomic segmentectomy for stage I non–small-cell lung cancer: Comparison of video-assisted thoracic surgery versus open approach

摘要

Anatomic segmentectomy is increasingly being considered as a means of achieving an R0 resection for peripheral, small, stage I non–small-cell lung cancer. In the current study, we compare the results of video-assisted thoracic surgery (n = 104) versus open (n = 121) segmentectomy in the treatment of stage I non–small-cell lung cancer.
