Learning curve for double-port video-assisted thoracoscopic lung segmentectomy: a propensity score matching study
In our center, the learning curve for double-port video-assisted thoracoscopic lung segmentectomy transitions from the learning stage to the proficiency stage when the number of surgical cases reaches 95. There were significant differences in the OT, number of lymph node stations removed, amount of drainage on the day of surgery, and amount of drainage on the first postoperative day.
