The Atlas of Thoracoscopic Anatomical Pulmonary Subsegmentectomy is a comprehensive and detailed guide to anatomical pulmonary subsegmentectomy, offering insights from both theoretical and technical perspectives. The book is organized into two parts:

Part I: Theoretical Background of Surgery
This section provides a foundational understanding of surgical subsegmental anatomy, CT three-dimensional reconstruction of pulmonary structures, surgical techniques, and perioperative patient management. It covers essential topics such as the anatomy of the lung, the ventilation and perfusion of the lung, and the surgical approaches to different pulmonary subsegmentectomies.

Part II: Subsegmentectomies of the Left and Right Lungs
In this part, the book presents over 40 different types of subsegmentectomies of the left and right lungs, both upper and lower lobes. The subsegmentectomies are described in detail, including the surgical approaches, anatomical landmarks, and potential complications.

The significance of this atlas lies in the rapid development of three-dimensional computed tomographic images, which has enabled more refined individualized anatomic details. This, in turn, has facilitated advancements in pulmonary subsegmentectomy, making this book a valuable resource for thoracic surgeons and physicians interested in thoracic surgery and mini-invasive surgical approaches in the thorax.

By providing a comprehensive and detailed overview of anatomical pulmonary subsegmentectomy, this atlas serves as a valuable tool for surgeons seeking to improve their knowledge and expertise in this field. It is an essential reference for both trainees and experienced practitioners alike, helping to enhance the outcomes and safety of surgical procedures performed in the thorax.
