Patients-specific virtual surgical navigation for lung segmentectomy: a prospective multicenter study

The lung module of a patient-specific virtual surgical navigation system is a feasible and effective tool for preoperative planning in anatomical segmentectomy and subsegmentectomy. It improves anatomical prediction accuracy, reduces surgeon workload, and demonstrates favorable perioperative performance, supporting its clinical value in technically demanding lung-sparing surgery for early-stage NSCLC.
