Dorsal incision shows more efficacy and safety to traditional incision in single-portal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery segmentectomy of LS9+10: a non-randomized prospective clinical trial
Abstract:Background: Segmentectomy is increasingly performed as a surgical technique. Traditional anterior axillary line and mid-axillary line video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) incision meets difficulties when dealing with left segment 9+10 (LS9+10), as the distance and angle of view make it uneasy to expose the trachea, blood vessels and intersegment plane. As an alternative, dorsal incision may be advantageous as which faces the key structures of LS9+10, may facilitate the management of trachea and blood ve… Show more
