Uniportal thoracoscopic left posterior basal segmentectomy using a posterior approach

Abstract Posterior basal (S10) segmentectomy is one of the most challenging (and uncommon) types of pulmonary segmentectomy. Here, we present two key tips for facilitating a uniportal operation. The first is a full understanding of the relative locations of the pulmonary vessels and bronchi (as reve...

description Abstract Posterior basal (S10) segmentectomy is one of the most challenging (and uncommon) types of pulmonary segmentectomy. Here, we present two key tips for facilitating a uniportal operation. The first is a full understanding of the relative locations of the pulmonary vessels and bronchi (as revealed by preoperative three‐dimensional computed tomography/broncho‐angiography), and the other is the use of “suction‐guided stapling” to dissect and divide the peripheral pulmonary vessels and bronchi. We describe the successful postoperative course of a patient who was so treated.
