Anatomical variations of pulmonary vessel may cause serious problems during pulmonary segmentectomy. Three-dimensional (3D)computed tomography (CT) presents 3D images of pulmonary vessels and the tracheobronchial tree and may help operative planning. Retrospective studies have identified the importance of 3-dimensional CT in the field of pulmonary segmentectomy. And the aim of this study is to compare the usefulness of 3-dimensional CT with standard chest CT in preoperative planning of video-assisted segmentectomy.
