Abstract The effectiveness and safety of cryoablation for lung cancer treatment has been gaining interest. This report presents a case of robotic portal right upper lobectomy for a second recurrence post-cryoablation, with valuable pathological findings. A 58-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital for lung cancer recurrence post-cryoablation, and he underwent robotic portal right upper lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection. Microscopically, papillary adenocarcinoma, fibrosis, and a foreign body reaction were observed. The patient was diagnosed with local recurrence of adenocarcinoma following cryoablation.
