Advanced Intra-Thoracic Ultrasound-Guided Thoracoscopic Lung Resection: A Case Report
We successfully performed a single-port thoracoscopic pulmonary wedge resection using intraoperative thoracic ultrasonography for precise lesion localization. The ultrasound devices we used were equipped with advanced technology, enabling clearer images. This case highlights the potential utility of intra-thoracic ultrasonography in minimally invasive lung surgery, as it enables accurate lesion localization and successful resection.
