Area of Science:

  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Segmentectomy is a common surgical procedure for lung conditions.
  • Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and robotic surgery are increasingly used for segmentectomy.
  • Accurate anatomical understanding and preoperative planning are crucial for successful segmentectomy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a method for VATS segmentectomy utilizing 3D-computed tomography (3D-CT).
  • To review literature and highlight key aspects of 3D-CT-based VATS segmentectomy.
  • To emphasize the importance of detailed anatomical analysis and surgical simulation.

Main Methods:

  • Detailed 3D-CT reconstruction techniques for pulmonary anatomy.
  • Analysis of individual patient anatomy, including anomalies.
  • Preoperative simulation of surgical procedures, including margin assessment and intraoperative navigation using 3D-CT.

Main Results:

  • The presented method facilitates a comprehensive understanding of pulmonary structures.
  • 3D-CT enables precise planning for VATS segmentectomy, improving surgical accuracy.
  • Integration of multi-disciplinary team input is highlighted for optimal outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • 3D-CT-based VATS segmentectomy offers a robust approach for complex pulmonary resections.
  • This method enhances preoperative planning, intraoperative guidance, and surgical precision.
  • The integration of advanced imaging and collaborative surgical teams is vital for advancing segmentectomy techniques.
