Review of Procedures and Outcomes of Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery for the Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in 45 Patients Undergoing Segmentectomy.

CONCLUSION: In decision-making between segmentectomy and lobectomy, adequate margins are required for the selection of segmentectomy, the most common of which is LUL trisegmentectomy. Technical challenges can be overcome with adequate training and simulation. Additional research could focus on the identification of factors associated with recurrence.
