Study Description

Brief Summary: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transbronchial ICG and percutaneous hook-wire assisted Video-assisted thoracoscopic sublobar resection. In the control group, CT-guided percutaneous hook-wire preoperative localization will be used for surgical resection; In the experimental group, electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy guided transbronchial ICG injection will be performed for localization before VATS.

Detailed Description: This is a single-center, prospective, randomized trial initiated by the investigator. Subjects with pulmonary nodules who will undergo Video-assisted thoracoscopic sublobar resection will be randomly divided into two groups. In the experimental group, before the VATS operation, transbronchial ICG injection will be guided by electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy to locate the nodule. In the control group, the subject will undergo CT guided hook-wire placement for nodule localization before VATS. The study is expected to enroll 188 patients. Finally, the effectiveness and safety of the two methods will be compared.
