To perform the complex segmentectomy, pre-operative simulation and three-dimensional multi-detector computed tomography (3D-CT) are both essential for safely performing operations and for securing adequate surgical margins. Comprehension of the intersegmental and intrasegmental veins to visualize the segmental border facilitates an easier parenchymal dissection. We describe our method and knack for creating an inflation-deflation line for lung segmentectomy that could especially be useful in thoracoscopic procedures for lung segmentectomy.
