“…Although lobectomy or segmentectomy could completely resect lung cancer, it is assumed these procedures may lose extra lung tissues, resulting in loss of pulmonary function (28). In order to preserve more lung tissues and improve the pulmonary function, pulmonary subsegmentectomy with a smaller scope than segmentectomy has begun to be to the treatment of early stage NSCLC (16,(29)(30)(31)(32)(33). The surgical difficulty of subsegmentectomy is mainly reflected in the location of the lesion, the identification and separation of fine tissue structures, the protection of normal lung tissue, arteries and veins, the skill level of surgical operation and cooperation (21).…”

BackgroundThere were new points of interest in performing subsegmentectomy and segmentectomy for patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, whether patients who underwent subsegmentectomy could obtain satisfactory clinical outcomes remains unclear. The present study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes and security of surgical procedures between subsegmentectomy and segmentectomy.MethodsA systematic review and meta-analysis was performed through five online databases to identify the included literatures which presented intact clinical outcome data among different surgical procedures. The included studies were evaluated based on precise and predefined inclusion criteria.ResultsThere were 4 published studies identified in this meta-analysis. A total of 325 patients who underwent subsegmentectomy and 904 patients who underwent segmentectomy were involved in this analysis. The duration of drainage [MD −0.19; 95%CI (−0.36, −0.02), p = 0.03] and postoperative hospital stay [MD −0.30; 95%CI (−0.58, −0.02), p = 0.009] of subsegmentectomy were significantly less than that of segmentectomy. There was no statistically significant difference among recurrence rate [OR 0.85; 95%CI (0.21, 3.42), p = 0.82], operation time, blood loss, incidence of complications [OR 0.83; 95%CI (0.58, 1.20), p = 0.33] between subsegmentectomy and segmentectomy in patients with stage IA NSCLC.ConclusionThe meta-analysis was firstly performed to compare perioperative outcomes among surgical procedures. The perioperative outcomes were comparable between subsegmentectomy and segmentectomy. Subsegmentectomy might be an alternative treatment for the deep tumor with size less than 1.5 cm and mainly composed of Ground Glass Opacity (GGO).
