Area of Science:

  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Oncology
  • Pulmonology

Background:

  • Lung cancer diagnosis and staging are critical for treatment planning.
  • Minimally invasive surgical techniques are increasingly preferred for lung resections.
  • Early-stage lung adenocarcinoma often presents with subtle or persistent respiratory symptoms.

Observation:

  • A 68-year-old male presented with a persistent cough.
  • Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) revealed a 23 mm mass in the right lower lung lobe.
  • No increased radioactivity in mediastinal lymph nodes or distant metastases were detected.

Findings:

  • The mass was pathologically confirmed as adenocarcinoma of the lung.
  • A single-direction video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy was successfully performed.

  • The patient experienced an uncomplicated postoperative recovery and was discharged on postoperative day 7.

    • Implications:

    • Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is a viable and effective treatment for early-stage lung adenocarcinoma.
    • Early diagnosis and surgical intervention lead to favorable patient outcomes.
    • This case highlights the importance of investigating persistent respiratory symptoms for potential malignancy.
