Abstract: 【Abstract】〓Objective〓To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the completely video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for early lung cancer. Methods〓A retrospective analysis was performed in 35 lung cancer patients who underwent completely video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy (VATS group) from Sep 2012 to May 2013. Another 35 selective cases with lung cancer who received open lobectomy were served as controls. Operating time, intraoperative bleeding and postoperative extubation time, number of lymph node dissection, postoperative pain, postoperative complications, postoperative hospitalization time were compared between VATS group and control group. Results〓No death occurred in peri-operative period, and one case was converted to open surgery. In VATS patients, blood loss, retention time of drainage tube, postoperative pain duration, hospital stay were shorter than that in controls (P<0.05). The average operation time, average number of lymph node dissection in VATS patients were similar to that in controls. Conclusion〓Completely video-assisted thoracoscopic lobotomy has an advantage open operation over for treating early lung cancer.
