Özet
Locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer invading the diaphragm is an infrequent clinical presentation. A 74-year-old male patient was operated using video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in our clinic for a tumor originating from the right lower lobe. A right lower lobectomy with diaphragmatic resection was performed to the tumor with a diameter of 3 cm that invaded the diaphragm, and the resulting defect was repaired primarily with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The patient did not develop complications in the postoperative period and was discharged on Day 6. In conclusion, patients with non-small cell lung cancer invasive to the diaphragm can be even safely operated with the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
