Figure 5. Joint resection of diaphragm and pulmonary segment. After identifying the extension of the lung lesion, a non-anatomic dissection of the right lower lobe was performed, which included the cystic lesion. After that, the visualization of the diaphragm showed multiple cyst seeding; therefor, a partial portion of the diaphragm was dissected and posteriorly resected with joint extraction of the pulmonary segment.
