Lobectomy
This single-center retrospective study examined 86 living-donor lobar lung transplant recipients who received 163 lobar grafts. Airway complications occurred in eight grafts (4.9 percent), all presenting as bronchial stenosis. Segmental perfusion defects on postoperative lung-perfusion...

This video presents the authors’ standardized technique for multiportal robotic-assisted left pneumonectomy after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy, using a five-step hilar dissection based on the principles of the French lobectomy approach. In...
This retrospective validation study compared conventional hard boundary objective performance indicators (OPIs) with probabilistic expected OPIs that model uncertainty in surgical step timing. Using 1,016 da Vinci Xi robotic cases...
In this episode of The Atrium, host Alice Copperwheat speaks with Jessica Donington, Professor of Surgery and Chief of the Section of Thoracic Surgery at the University of Chicago, Illinois,...
In this article, the authors quantify the financial burden of postoperative adverse events after lobectomy for lung cancer across 10 high-volume Canadian hospitals. Using data from 2017 to 2022, including...
This individual patient data meta-analysis evaluated the clinical efficacy of surgical sealants after pulmonary resection using data from seven randomized controlled trials including 552 patients. The use of a sealant...
This large single-center retrospective study of 682 patients compared outcomes after sleeve lobectomy for non-small cel lung cancer (NSCLC) with and without buttressing the bronchial anastomosis using autogenous flaps. After...
This prospective observational study examined the association between Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) scores and postoperative pain in 100 patients undergoing multiportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy. The PCS is a...
This retrospective analysis compared three-port and four-port robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)(n=121, 2020–2021). Demographics, tumor characteristics, complications, and lymph node yields were similar between...
This study investigates the impact of tumor spread through air spaces (STAS) on surgical outcomes for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In a retrospective analysis of 785 patients, 19.2...
This article assesses the outcomes of segmentectomy versus lobectomy in treating peripheral, early-stage lung adenocarcinoma. In a multicenter study involving 674 patients, the authors compared overall survival (OS), lung cancer-specific...
This retrospective study compared outcomes for 90-day mortality and five-year overall survival estimates in patients who underwent lobectomy, segmentectomy, or wedge resection for stage c-IA lung carcinoma between 2016-2022. Of...
