NCT00862004

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) major pulmonary resection with systematic node dissection (SND) for clinical stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Success is defined as VATS major pulmonary resection with SND without conversion. If success rate over 90%, VATS major pulmonary resection with SND is considered as feasible procedures for clinical stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer.
