Left upper sleeve lobectomy. (A) Block the root of the posterior segment of left upper lobe artery using Hemo Lock; (B) transect the distal end of the posterior segment of left upper lobe artery using HIFU; (C) dissect to expose the posterior segment of left upper pulmonary trunk; (D) dissect to expose the left lower pulmonary artery; (E) block the proximal end of the left upper pulmonary artery using a vascular blocking forceps; (F) block the distal end of the left upper pulmonary artery using a vascular blocking forceps; (G,H) transect the lingular segment of left upper lobe artery using the endoscopic linear cutter stapler. HIFU, high intensity focused ultrasound.
