1. IntroductionMinimally invasive surgical (MIS) approaches have significantly improved thoracic surgical practice. Backed by randomized evidence, they now represent the gold-standard surgical approach in early-stage lung cancer treatment [1,2]. Notwithstanding the important advantages conferred by MIS and technical and technological improvements, the incidence of complications is still high (24–41%), with a major complication rate of 1.5% [3].

1 IntroductionOver the last decade, the diagnosis and staging of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has significantly improved primarily with the use of fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron-emission tomography (FDG-PET/CT). Previous randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the utility of FDG-PET/CT (typically in combination with CT) with respect to avoidance of futile surgery in patients with both early stage and more advanced NSCLC (1–3).
