Chest surgery navigation study pulled before starting
NCT ID NCT04328584
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to test a surgical navigation system that gives surgeons an extra view of chest wall lesions during surgery. The goal was to help remove tumors more precisely, reducing the need for repeat surgeries or complex reconstruction. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
