Under general anesthesia and single-lung ventilation, a thoracoscope and instruments are inserted through one or more small incisions, and wedge resection sampling is performed on superficial lung lesions or representative areas according to imaging; intraoperative frozen section rapid pathology can be performed if necessary to determine whether to add sampling. After the operation, a chest drain is inserted and the lung is re-expanded, and the patient is returned to the ward for respiratory monitoring and pain management. The goal is to obtain sufficient and representative tissue for pathology and multidisciplinary diagnosis. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
Total stay (preoperative evaluation + hospitalization/surgery + follow-up) is usually 10–21 days, subject to the surgery schedule and recovery progress.
