Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA) provides detailed imaging information for pulmonary segmentectomy. This study was performed to verify the feasibility of 3D-CTBA-guided thoracoscopic segmentectomy for the treatment of pulmonary nodules. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on all patients who underwent 3D-CTBA-guided uniport thoracoscopic segmentectomies or subsegmentectomies for pulmonary nodules in the period from May 2019 to May 2020. All of the information related to perioperative management and surgical operations was retrieved from the medical records and operating notes for detailed analysis. RESULTS A total of 104 eligible operations involving the resection of 110 nodules with diameters in the range of 5-20 mm were included. Under 3D-CTBA guidance, the pulmonary nodules were located with an accuracy of 100% (110/110) and the median resection margin was 24.3 mm (17-33 mm). Additionally, the segmental (subsegmental) bronchi, arteries, and veins were identified with accuracy rates of 100% (104/104), 96.2% (100/104), and 94.2% (98/104), respectively. The postoperative complications consisted of 3 cases of pulmonary infection (2.9%), 6 cases of arrhythmia (5.8%), 2 cases of hemoptysis (1.9%), 4 cases of air leak (3.8%), and 2 cases of subcutaneous emphysema (1.9%). No perioperative death occurred. CONCLUSION 3D-CTBA-guided thoracoscopic segmentectomy is an effective surgical approach for the management of pulmonary nodules.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We report our experience with simultaneous localization and thoracoscopic removal for nonpalpable undiagnosed pulmonary nodules. METHODS All patients with nonpalpable lesions requiring video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) wedge resection underwent localization of the targets and surgical removal in a hybrid operating room. Lesions were considered nonpalpable if they were small (<1 cm), deep (>1 cm from the surface), subsolid, or located within a dystrophic area. In all cases, intraoperative cone-beam computed tomography was performed for nodule localization and targeting, metal hookwires, or coils were alternatively used for intraoperative marking. RESULTS From April 2016 to November 2019, 39 image-guided VATS (iVATS) were performed. The mean lesion size was 12 ± 6 mm. The mean distance from the deep edge of the lesion to the pleural surface was 24 ± 9 mm. The localization was performed with 20 hookwires and 19 coils. iVATS localization was successful in 36 patients (92.3%). Thirty-seven wedge resections were completed by VATS, 2 (5%) required conversion to thoracotomy. In 9 patients with intraoperative diagnosis of lung cancer, a lobectomy was performed (7 VATS and 2 thoracotomies). Mean length of iVATS localization was 30 ± 13 minutes. Median postoperative length of stay was 4 days (IQR 3 to 5). CONCLUSIONS iVATS seems to be a helpful tool for simultaneous localization and removal of nonpalpable nodules. A versatile approach using different devices seems advisable for the removal of targets in every clinical scenario reducing VATS conversion rate. Future research is required to compare iVATS with traditional preoperative localization techniques.

Abstract
With the widespread availability of lung cancer screening programs, the number of small lung nodules requiring histological characterization has dramatically increased. Because computed tomography-guided fine-needle aspiration may frequently yield false-negative results, excisional biopsy using thoracoscopy is frequently required. Although thoracoscopic procedure has been known to be ideal for nodule resection, the identification of very small, subsolid and deep pulmonary nodules may still be challenging. Precise lesion localization is a key prerequisite to avoid conversion to an unplanned thoracotomy. In the traditional workflow, the localization procedure is performed in the radiology suite, after which the patient is moved to an operating room. With the availability of hybrid operating rooms, a new approach encompassing simultaneous localization and removal of non-palpable lung nodules has become feasible. In this article, we review the procedural workflow of this new technique and discuss its indications and results.

Abstract
Background Localization of small pulmonary nodules is an inevitable challenge for the thoracic surgeon. This study aimed to investigate the accuracy of three‐dimensional (3D) printing technology for localizing small pulmonary nodules, especially ground‐glass nodules (GGNs). Methods This study enrolled patients with peripheral small pulmonary nodules (≤ 2 cm) who required preoperative localization. In the comparison period, patients underwent both computed tomography‐guided (CT‐G) and 3D‐printing template guided (3D‐G) localization to compare the accuracies of the two methods. In the testing period, the 3D‐printing technique was implemented alone. The 3D‐printing physical navigational template was designed based on data from perioperative CT images. Clinical data, imaging data, surgical data, and evaluation index were collected for further analysis. The learning curve of the 3D‐printing localization technique was assessed using cumulative sum (CUSUM) analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results In the comparison period (n = 14), the success rates of CT‐G and 3D‐G were 100% and 92.9% (P = 0.31), respectively; in the testing period (n = 23), the success rate of 3D‐G was 95.6%. The localization times of CT‐G, 3D‐G (comparison), and 3D‐G (testing) were 23.6 ± 5.3, 19.3 ± 6.8, and 9.8 ± 4.6 minutes, respectively. The CUSUM learning curve was modeled using the equation: Y = 0.48X2− 0.013X − 0.454 (R2 = 0.89). The learning curve was composed of two phases, phase 1 (the initial 20 patients) and phase 2 (the remaining 17 patients). Conclusions 3D printing localization has adequate accuracy and is a feasible and accessible strategy for use in localizing small pulmonary nodules, especially in right upper lobe. The use of this technique could facilitate lung nodule localization prior to surgery.

Abstract
Early-stage primary lung cancer is increasingly detected by computed tomographic (CT) screening and the radicality of sublobar lung resection (wedge resection and segmentectomy) has been suggested. However, identification of a tumor intraoperatively becomes more difficult, the earlier a nodule is detected. A solution to this challenge is localization techniques. There are many techniques to localize small pulmonary nodules, including that replacing surgeon's tactile sensation, visualizing the tumor using ultrasound, and various types of lung markings that are placed percutaneously under CT guidance or bronchoscopically. The most commonly used technique is CT-guided placement of a hookwire, but there are concerns about potentially fatal air embolism. Bronchoscopic localization, especially using electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy with or without intraoperative cone-beam CT imaging, has been increasingly reported. Beyond localization, the concept of lung "mapping" is emerging. In sublobar lung resection, in addition to localization of the targeted tumor, acquisition of sufficient resection margins is critical to prevent local recurrence. Virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP) has evolved from bronchoscopic dye localization, but by placing multiple dye marks, it provides two-dimensional geometric information on the lung. Moreover, to ensure deep resection margins, the newly developed technique of VAL-MAP 2.0 combining dye marks and intrabronchial placement of a microcoil enables three-dimensional lung mapping. This allows for intraoperative navigation of lung resection under a fluoroscope. Development of this field, such as using a new technology of augmented reality, will further enhance the accuracy and convenience of lung resection in the near future.

Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the usefulness of preoperative computed tomography (CT)-guided coil localization in patients with lung nodules who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lung resection.Material and methods: From October 2015 to January 2018, 76 patients with lung nodules underwent CT-guided coil localization and subsequent VATS in our center. The tail of the coil remained above the visceral pleura. Data regarding the technical success of coil localization and wedge resection were analyzed.Results: A total of 96 lung nodules in 76 patients were localized. The technical success rate of CT-guided coil localization was 97.9% (94/96). Among the 94 localized nodules, 88 coils were visible and six coils were palpated during VATS. Nine patients experienced pneumothorax and two patients experienced hemoptysis after coil localization. Two patients underwent VATS beyond 24 h after coil localization. The technical success rate of wedge resection of lung nodules was 97.9%. Seventeen patients with multiple target lung nodules underwent one-stage video-assisted resection of all target nodules after coil localization.Conclusion: Preoperative CT-guided coil localization is a safe and convenient method to facilitate a high success rate of diagnostic VATS wedge-resection of lung nodules. Coil localization can also facilitate one-stage VATS wedge-resection of multiple nodules.
