A VATS lobectomy, or thoracoscopic lobectomy, procedure is performed using a video camera and working instruments that are inserted through three small incisions, with no spreading of ribs. Compared ...

Hospital length of stay, hospital costs, and opioid use were reduced among patients who underwent cryoablation during lobectomy for lung cancer.

A recent study reveals that 4-year survival rates are similar for minimally invasive and open lobectomy for lung cancer, even when accounting for disparities in patient and tumor characteristics.

Researchers observed a link between improved overall survival and lobectomy vs. sublobar resection. Researchers are working on a long-term risk calculator with these real-world data. Among ...
