AB Video-assisted  thoracoscopic  wedge  resection  is  most  commonly  used  to  obtain  tissue  diagnosis  in  patients  with  either  suspected  interstitial  lung  disease  or  lung  nodules.  It  is  also  indicated  for  the  treatment  of  known  lung  cancers  less  than  3  cm  in  diameter  in  patients  whose  comorbidities  or  lung  function  suggest  they  will  not  tolerate  an  anatomic  lung  resection.
