Abstract
Historically, the surgical procedure of choice for curative resection of lung cancer, even in its early stages, has been a lobectomy or pneumonectomy. The role of a more conservative resection, such as a segmentectomy or wedge resection, has been explored by many, paralleling the interest in conservative resection of breast cancer, where studies determined that clinical results of lumpectomy compared favorably with modified radical mastectomy.
