This study details a posterior approach for left subsuperior segment (S∗) segmentectomy, an uncommon thoracic surgery. The successful procedure was completed quickly with minimal blood loss, allowing for early patient discharge.

Area of Science:

  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Pulmonary Anatomy
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • The subsuperior segment (S∗) is an atypical pulmonary segment situated between the superior and posterior basal segments.
  • Anatomical segmental resection of the S∗ segment is not commonly performed, and many thoracic surgeons lack experience with this procedure.

Observation:

  • This report presents a case study focusing on the posterior approach for a left S∗ segmentectomy.
  • The surgical procedure was performed efficiently, with a total operating time of 110 minutes and minimal blood loss of only 10 mL.

Findings:

  • The posterior approach to left S∗ segmentectomy was successfully executed.
  • The patient experienced a smooth recovery and was discharged on postoperative day 3.

Implications:

  • This case demonstrates the feasibility and safety of the posterior approach for left S∗ segmentectomy.
  • This technique may offer a viable option for thoracic surgeons performing anatomical resections of atypical pulmonary segments.
