Precision lung surgery aims to save healthy tissue while removing cancer

NCT ID NCT07564557

First seen May 12, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new surgical technique called septum-guided segmentectomy for people with small (≤2 cm), deep-seated early-stage lung cancer. Instead of removing an entire lung lobe, surgeons use natural lung boundaries to precisely remove only the diseased segment, aiming to preserve more healthy lung function. The trial will follow 89 participants for 3 years to see if the cancer stays away and how well they recover.
