Description

Despite the use of near-infrared thoracoscopy with intravenous indocyanine green, intraoperative assessment of the surgical margin for the resection of non-palpable tumors located near the intersegmental plane requires highly advanced surgical skill for the prevention of local recurrence. Because the demarcation line is limited to the pleural surface, to overcome uncertainty in tumor palpation for deeply located small-sized lesions, other supplemental localization techniques have been proposed. Here, we present a novel surgical technique using radiofrequency identification markers for intraoperative assessment of the lateral surgical margin in segmentectomy.
