Treatment of High-Risk Early Stage Lung Cancer
Following very significant advances, it is now widely recognized that definitive treatment should be considered in patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have pulmonary dysfunction and/or other co-morbidities. This book is a detailed guide to the evaluation and management of these high-risk patients. It first addresses issues such as pathologic considerations, assessment of co-morbidity and the imaging and staging of NSCLC. Surgical and radiotherapy treatment options, including sublobar resection, minimally invasive surgery, brachytherapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy and proton and charged particle therapy, are then discussed in detail. The role of radiofrequency ablation, salvage local therapy and systemic chemotherapy is also considered. Treatment of High-Risk Early Stage Lung Cancer will be of great interest to radiation and medical oncologists, thoracic surgeons, interventional radiologists and pulmonologists.

Video-Atlas of VATS Pulmonary Sublobar Resections
The Video-Atlas of Pulmonary Sublobar Resections aims to be a reference multimedia book for Thoracic Surgeons. Mainly focused on operative technical aspects, each individual segmentectomy and many combinations are described. Each chapter opens with anatomical 3D reconstructions of the segment and its bronchoscopic anatomy. Then, the main steps for performing the procedure, that are illustrated in high-definition (HD) video-clips and figures, are described. Expert authors highlight specifical tips & tricks for succesfully performing the resection, and include anatomical variations that also illustrate with HD video-clips. This illustrated guide provides thoracic surgeons with an incredibly useful tool for learning and improving their technique in sublobar resections.
