OBJECTIVE: To present a novel approach for localization , for lesions that are not amenable to palpation
METHODS: Navigational Bronchoscopy Robotic segmentectomy
RESULTS: We present a case of a 7 mm nodule that was previously marked by navigational bronchoscopy that underwent a subsequent robotic segmentectomy
CONCLUSIONS: We present an adjunct technique to help localize small lesions that may aid in the accuracy of our resections and also help the pathologist identify non palpable lesions
