August 14, 2025
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.
August 7, 2025
This video demonstrates a safe and effective robotic approach to left upper division trisegmentectomy, featuring careful anatomical dissection, parenchymal division, and comprehensive lymphadenectomy. It emphasizes the balance between preserving important structures while ensuring adequate lung division for tumor resection.
July 29, 2025
This video demonstrates the successful management of a challenging case of a centrally located left upper lobe tumor through a minimally invasive bronchial sleeve lobectomy, which led to excellent outcomes.
June 26, 2025
This study evaluated the effect of perioperative invasive nodal staging on nodal upstaging in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing resection.
June 13, 2025
At the SCTS Annual Meeting, Dr. Yolanda L. Colson delivered a presentation on “Nano and Cell-Based Technologies for Thoracic Surgeons.”
June 5, 2025
This video demonstrates the case of a 67-year-old male who was found to have a right lower lobe carcinoid tumor invading bronchus intermedius; thus, a robotic-assisted right middle and lower lobe bilobectomy was performed.
May 30, 2025
This video illustrates the resection of an azygous lobe and discusses whether it should be classified as a lobectomy or segmentectomy.
May 22, 2025
This retrospective study examined whether following intraoperative lymph node sampling guidelines influenced overall survival and nodal upstaging in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who underwent lung resection in Denmark from 2012 to 2021.
May 22, 2025
This research developed a deep learning algorithm to predict pathological pleural invasion (pPL) from thoracoscopic imagery in patients with cT1 tumors receiving sublobar resections. The study included 80 patients, with the learning model trained on 64 cases and validated on 16.
May 15, 2025
This video demonstrates how practical simulation on a 3D lung model can be a useful training tool for thoracic surgery residents to understand and perform the steps of a pulmonary lobectomy.
