About this book
This book explains more than 60 types of segmentectomy and 4 types of completion lobectomy with plentiful figures to explain the intraoperative findings and anatomy of the lung. It also provides videos to help readers recognize the tricks and techniques that are not explained in still images. The book is organized into four parts following the anatomy of the lung; right upper lobe, right lower lobe, left upper lobe, and left lower lobe. Each chapter goes into detail on each segment and offers the latest devices and procedures. Although segmentectomy is known as curative surgery for early-stage small lung cancers, not many surgeons can perform with accuracy due to its anatomical complexity. Therefore, the purpose of Anatomical Segmentectomy for Lung Cancer is to share the knowledge and experiences of performing the surgeries and to further enhance the techniques by creating a foundation for building on to this knowledge. It is a valuable resource for thoracic surgeons interested in curative surgery for small lung cancers and for those who wish to stay up to date on the latest techniques.
