DOI: 10.1111/ans.18494
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIM Median sternotomy is an unfavourable approach for performing lung resection and mediastinal lymphadenectomy. Some studies have speculated that concurrent pulmonary resections other than upper lobectomy, necessitate anterolateral thoracotomy in addition to sternotomy.… read more here.
