Case description

This patient had an enlarging 8mm indeterminate pulmonary nodule deep within the posterior segment (S2) of the right upper lobe. We performed a robot-assisted segmentectomy using the Da Vinci Xi robotic surgical system. After the broncho-vascular structures were divided indocyanine green was injected systemically in order to delineate the inter-segmental parenchymal borders. The patient made an uneventful recovery and was discharged home on the third post-operative day. The nodule turned out to be an inflammatory lesion.
