Cirúrugia torácica videoassistida por porta única : um caso de adenocarcinoma do pulmão
| Resumo: | Lung cancer is the most common cancer in the World, with about one million and eight hundred thousand new diagnoses each year. The therapeutical approach to a patient with lung cancer depends upon the tumor hystology and disease extent, the patient specific characteristics and mostly of a premature diagnosis. Surgery is widely accepted as the treatment of choice in early stage lung cancer. Lung cancer ressection can be performed using different surgical techniques. Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) is the state of the art technique in Thoracic Surgery, being usually performed using 3 or 2 incisions. Recently it started being performed using only 1 incision (Single-Port VATS). The presented clinical case refers a 47 year old woman, who was an active smoker diagnosed with resectable early stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Superior right lobectomy was performed in this case by Single-Port VATS. |
