Abstract:
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) clinical practice guideline of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in 2018 points out that anatomic pulmonary resection is a preferred option for early stage NSCLC. With the development of video-assisted thoracoscopy, minimally invasive thoracic surgery represented by thoracoscopy has been widely used in clinical practice. Video-assisted thoracoscopic segmentectomy has become one of the treatment options for early stage NSCLC. Clinical studies have found that sublobar resection can achieve similar results and preserve more pulmonary function in the treatment of early stage NSCLC compared with lobectomy, but the changes of pulmonary function after segmentectomy are still controversial. This article focuses on the research progress of pulmonary function changes in NSCLC patients after video-assisted thoracoscopic segmentectomy.
