Recently, anatomical segmentectomy emerges as a hot spot in clinical research for surgical treatment of early-stage lung cancer. The techniques of segmentectomy are more elaborate and complicated than lobectomy, because of the considerable anatomic variations of segment blood vessels and bronchus. In a long term, video-assisted thoracic surgery is the mainly minimally invasive approach. As a new approach of minimally invasive surgery, da Vinci robot system possesses three-dimensional and high definition view, better dexterity mechanical wrist and tremor filtering system, which are the main advantages over video-assisted thoracic surgery. All the superiorities of robot system provide good supports for performing segmentectomy. Robot-assisted segmentectomy has been carried out in many medical centers in China and abroad until now. However, most surgery cases often lack adequate controls on quality.
