Hybrid video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy and en-bloc chest wall resection for non-small cell lung cancer.

abstract：Background:Spread through air spaces (STAS) is reportedly a significant risk factor for recurrence and a prognostic factor in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially after sublobar resection. Because wedge resection (WR) is associated with insufficient margins, we hypothesized that STAS has a great...
