Robot-assisted lobectomy [PDF]
Clinical and Technical Description A 48-year-old woman was found to have a 1-cm nodule that had increased in size compared with its size at previous computed tomographic scans. After negative bronchoscopic and mediastinoscopic results, a VATS wedge resection confirmed non–small cell lung cancer. A formal lobectomy was then performed.
