Sumario:OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraoperative cone-beam computed tomography-guided video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery wedge resection of impalpable small pulmonary nodules. METHODS: This was a single-centre phase 2 trial conducted between April 2018 and March 2019. Peripheral small pulmonary nodules, defined as either ground-glass opacity-dominant (>50%) nodules measuring ≤3 cm in diameter (ground-glass opacity-dominant type) or nodules measuring ≤2 cm in diameter located deeper than the nodule diameter from the visceral pleura (deep solid type), were eligible for resection using a cone-beam computed tomography-guided thoracoscopic manner. The primary end-point was macroscopic complete resection, and secondary end-points were: nodule extraction rate, operation time, localization time, marking accuracy, microscopic complete resection and safety. RESULTS: Twenty-two nodules, in 9 men and 11 women with a mean age of 64.3 years, were visualized and resected. The nodules were located in the right upper, middle and lower lobes in 3, 1 and 5 patients, respectively, and in the left upper and lower lobes in 5 and 8 patients, respectively. Seven nodules were ground-glass opacity-dominant types, and 15 were deep solid types. Cone-beam computed tomography could clearly image all nodules. The mean time for localization was 17.4 min. The mean operation time was 110.7 min. Macroscopic complete resection was accomplished in 21 nodules (95.5%). Microscopic complete resection was achieved in all nodules (100%). Postoperative air leakage and bleeding were observed in 1 patient (5%). CONCLUSIONS: Cone-beam computed tomography might be a safe and useful guide for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery wedge resection of impalpable peripheral pulmonary nodules.
