Patients were stratified into 2 groups based on the Goddard score (GS), a visual evaluation method for quantifying radiologic findings of emphysema on computed tomography (CT)with a maximum of 24 points: GS 0-5 and GS \u22656. The incidences of postoperative air leak-related complications (prolonged air leak, pleurodesis, reinsertion of the chest tube, or reoperation for air leak) were compared between the lobectomy and segmentectomy groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, 747 patients were included in the study. Among 564 patients with GS 0-5, there were no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative air leak-related complications between lobectomy (5.7%) and segmentectomy (8.2%) groups (P\u2009=\u2009.275). Conversely, in 183 patients with GS \u22656, the incidence of such complications was significantly lower in the segmentectomy group (7.0%) compared to the lobectomy group (18.3%) (P\u2009=\u2009.036).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In patients with moderate to severe emphysema (GS \u22656), segmentectomy was associated with a lower incidence of postoperative air leak-related complications than lobectomy. This may reflect the advantage of greater parenchymal preservation; however, these findings should be interpreted cautiously given the observational study design.<\/jats:p>\n
