Atlas of Thoracoscopic Anatomical Pulmonary Subsegmentectomy provides an in-depth and comprehensive overview and guidance on anatomical pulmonary subsegmentectomy, from both theoretical and technical perspectives. The book is divided in two parts: Part I is dedicated to theoretical background of surgery, including surgical subsegmental anatomy, CT three-dimensional reconstruction of pulmonary structures, surgical techniques, and perioperative patient management. Part II presents more than 40 kinds of subsegmentectomies of the left and right lungs, both upper and lower lobes.

As the rapid development of three-dimensional computed tomographic images has made it possible to provide more refined individualized anatomic details, and has consequently enabled advances in pulmonary subsegmentectomy, this book is a valuable resource to thoracic surgeons and physicians interested in thoracic surgery and mini-invasive surgical approaches in the thorax.

Index

Liang Chen

Dr Chen is Chief Surgeon, Professor and Doctoral Supervisor, Director of the Department of Thoracic Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University (Jiangsu Province Hospital) and deputy director of Department of Thoracic Surgery of the First Clinical College of Nanjing Medical University. Current chairman of the Thoracic Surgery Branch of the Jiangsu Medical Association, chairman-designate of the Thoracic Surgery Branch of Jiangsu Medical Doctor Association, member of the Thoracoscopy Group of the Fourth Chinese Society of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery. He is committed to the surgical treatment of early lung cancer, has completed more than 1,000 cases of thoracoscopic anatomical pulmonary segmentectomy and more than 400 cases of pulmonary subsegmentectomy. Dr Chen was the first to report thoracoscopic pulmonary sub-subsegmentectomy in the world. He was the first in China to propose the concept of "three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA)-guided precise thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy" and devoted himself to promoting precise thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy worldwide.
