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 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 کاملManagement of lung nodules newly found by virtual-assisted lung mapping: a case report
BACKGROUND Virtual-assisted lung mapping is a novel bronchoscopic lung marking technique that uses virtual images to perform multiple concurrent dye marking of barely palpable pulmonary tumors. Subsequent chest computed tomography is required to confirm the locations marked. We here report a patient in whom computed tomography after virtual-assisted lung mapping unexpectedly revealed additional...
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...
متن کاملVirtual-assisted lung mapping: outcome of 100 consecutive cases in a single institute.
OBJECTIVES We developed virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP), a bronchoscopic multispot dye-marking technique using three dimensional (3D) virtual imaging, for precise thoracoscopic sublobar lung resection with safe surgical margins. We herein review the results of 100 consecutive cases of VAL-MAP in our institute to identify types of tumours or resections that benefit from VAL-MAP. METHOD...
