A 89-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of a relatively defined shadow of the right peripheral lung in chest roentgenograms. Although this case couldn't be diagnosed with transbronchial lung biopsy, adenocarcinoma of the lung (c-T1N0M0) was suspected because of radiological findings. We planned video-assisted pulmonary partial resection of the S6 in consideration of age and general status. Her postoperative courses was uneventful with no complications. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is one of the treatments for elderly patients with peripheral early stage lung cancer.
一位89岁女性因胸部X线片显示右肺外周有相对明确的阴影而被转诊至我院。尽管经支气管肺活检无法确诊该病例，但根据影像学表现怀疑为肺腺癌（c-T1N0M0）。考虑到患者年龄和一般状况，我们计划对S6进行电视辅助肺部分切除术。她术后恢复顺利，无并发症。电视辅助胸腔镜手术是老年外周早期肺癌患者的治疗方法之一。
