Virtual assisted lung mapping: navigational thoracoscopic lung resection
Virtual assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP) is a new technique for bronchoscopic lung marking developed to assist in navigational lung resection. Unlike conventional marking techniques using a single marking to identify an intrapulmonary tumor, VAL-MAP utilizes multiple dye-mediated markings, providing “geometric information” on the lung surface. The purpose of the technique is to identify a tumor ...
متن کاملSublobar resection for lung cancer.
Sublobar resection for small lung cancers has been debated frequently and is still a controversial issue. The only randomised trial comparing lobectomy with sublobar resections found a significantly higher recurrence rate for the latter, but failed to show significant differences in survival, although survival was better for the lobectomy group. One meta-analysis and several nonrandomised compa...
متن کاملNot Mutually Exclusive but Mutually Beneficial
There has been a long-standing debate about whether having accurate self-perceptions or holding positive illusions of self is more adaptive. This debate has recently expanded to consider the role of accuracy and bias of partner perceptions in romantic relationships. In the present study, we hypothesized that because accuracy, positivity bias, and similarity bias are likely to serve distinct fun...
متن کاملResection of synchronous bilateral multiple lung adenocarcinomas using virtual-assisted lung mapping
BACKGROUND Virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP) is a novel marking technique to assist sub-lobar resection of small hardly palpable lung tumors. Here, we present the first case of synchronous bilateral multiple lung adenocarcinomas that were successfully resected with VAL-MAP navigation. CASE PRESENTATION A 73-year-old female with multiple nodules (1 in the right upper lobe, 2 in the right...
متن کاملBilateral segmentectomies using virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP) for metastatic lung tumors
BACKGROUND Virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP) has been used not only in wedge resection but also in segmentectomy for hardly palpable lung nodules. We herein report a case of bilateral segmentectomy using VAL-MAP with chronological change of pulmonary function test results. CASE PRESENTATION A 50-year-old female was found to have a colorectal cancer with pulmonary nodules in both sides o...
