OBJECTIVE: Patients with nonlocalized bronchiectasis are encountered commonly; however, there is little information regarding surgical intervention in this patient population. The aim of this study was to evaluate symptomatic response and safety of anatomic resection of the predominant lesion via the use of lobectomy for the management of nonlocalized bronchiectasis.
BACKGROUND: Lung segmentectomy may be considered an oncologic equivalent treatment to lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) sized 20 mm or smaller. Subxiphoid uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) could further improve the surgical outcome reducing the surgical stress and completely avoiding the intercostal nerve injury. The aim of this manuscript is to illustrate the Sh...
