A pulmonary ligament approach for portal robotic segmentectomy of the lateral and posterior basal segments: a case report

Abstract Background Thoracoscopic segmentectomy of the lateral and posterior basal segments is extremely technically challenging. Appropriate segmentectomy requires exposure and recognition of the branches of the bronchi and pulmonary vessels deep in the lung parenchyma. Although various approaches...
