Video-assisted thoracic surgery S7 segmentectomy: use of virtual reality surgical planning and simulated reality intraoperative modelling.

Preoperative planning and perioperative guidance are crucial in anatomical sublobar pulmonary resections. Preoperative virtual reality visualization of the computed tomography scan and intraoperative guidance through a soft-tissue dynamic lung model (simulated reality) can provide better insights into patient-specific anatomy for the surgical team. Using these imaging techniques, we present a right-sided video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery segment 7 resection.
