Abstract
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is effective for therapeutic wedge resections, isolated lobectomies, and simple segmentectomies and lobectomies combined with wedge resections or segmentectomies for pulmonary tuberculosis. Tuberculosis lesions that require a pneumonectomy or thoracoplasty are still major challenges for VATS.
