The author performed a lobectomy with a video thoracoscope on a 72-year-old male patient with right upper lobe lung squamous cell cancer. There were serious pleural adhesions, many lymph nodes between bronchi, and the interlobular fissures were not complete.

Thank You Dr Jiang Quan Lots of large lymph nodes and pleural adhesions. Was this a suitable case for VATS Lobectomy?

yes now most of the pleural adhesion is not contradiction for vats, and also the large lymph nodes. if the lymph node did not invade, it is easy to dissect with vats.
