Raja M Flores,Naveed Alam,

Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy provides a minimally invasive approach for the management of early-stage lung cancer. Questions about the safety of VATS lobectomy and its adequacy as a cancer operation compared with open thoracotomy have hindered its universal acceptance among thoracic surgeons. Evidence suggests that VATS lobectomy can be safely performed and is an adequate cancer operation for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. However, adequately powered well-balanced studies comparing VATS with open thoracotomy for lobectomy are lacking in the literature.
