The change in the left upper residual lobe volume before and after simple (S6) and complex (S10)
segmentectomy (A, C). There were no significant differences in predicted and actual residual lobe
volume (S6; p=0.191, complex; p=0.115) (B, D).

Comparison of the preservation rate of the residual lobe between simple (S6) and complex
segmentectomies. The preservation rate was not significant different in simple and complex
