Methods: From December 2009 to March 2011, 20 patients with peripheral lung cancer were treated with single-direction thoracoscopic lobectomy and systemic lymph nodes dissection. Results: Surgeries were successfully performed. No significant complications occurred perioperatively. The average operation time was 193 min, the average blood loss was 234 ml, the average duration of drainage was 6 d, the postoperative hospital stay was 12 d, and the average number of lymph nodes dissected was 16. Conclusion: Single-direction thoracoscopic lobectomy is feasible and safe in the treatment of peripheral lung cancer and can simplify the surgical procedures.展开更多
