【 摘 要 】

The sequence of vessel ligation in lobectomy can significantly affect the hematogenous spread of circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Vein-first ligation substantially reduces CTC dissemination and achieves favorable survival compared with artery-first ligation. In this study, we further explored whether the timing of pulmonary vein (PV) ligation determined according to the early and late PV ligation technique is associated with CTC dissemination.
