The VVBA method for thoracoscopic right middle lobe segmentectomy
The right middle lobe segments (RS4 and RS5) are very small and the technique for segmentectomy is rarely reported. Here, we report 3 cases of thoracoscopic RS4 segmentectomy with VVBA (V, vein; V, ventilation...

Quantification of serum HBXAP DNA in lung cancer patients by quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction
Hepatitis B virus x associated protein (HBXAP), as a subunit of chromatin remodeling and spacing factor, plays a critical role in cancer development through gene amplification. In this study, we aimed to quantify...

Observation of circulating tumour cells in patients with non-small cell lung cancer by real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction in peroperative period
Purpose: To assess whether surgical manoeuvre or resection of lung cancer could lead to haematogenous dissemination of malignant cells. In the mean time, the relationship between the sequ...

Detection of disseminated lung cancer cells in regional lymph nodes by assay of CK19 reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and its clinical significance
Purpose: To set up a molecular method (i.e. RT-PCR) that can be used to detect disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) in regional lymph nodes (LNs) in patients with lung cancer and to evaluate its clinical significance.
