Robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) for higher stages non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) remains controversial. This study reports the feasibility of RATS in patients with stages IIB-IVA NSCLC. A single-institute, retrospective study was conduc...
Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer deaths in the modern world. Screening of lung nodules is essential for early recognition to facilitate treatment that improves the rate of patient rehabilitation. An increase in accuracy during l...
BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The majority of lung cancers are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), accounting for approximately 85% of all lung cancer types. The Cox proportional hazards model (CPH),...

BACKGROUND: The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are a first-line therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR mutations. Approximately half of the patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC are treated with...
BACKGROUND: Accurate diagnosis of N2 lymph node status of the resectable stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) before surgery is crucial, while there is lack of corresponding method clinically.
Histological artefacts in cryosectioned tissue can hinder rapid diagnostic assessments during surgery. Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue provides higher quality slides, but the process for obtaining them is laborious (typically lasti...
Early diagnosis of lung cancer to increase the survival rate, which is currently at a low range of mid-30%, remains a critical need. Despite this, multi-omics data have rarely been applied to non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) diagnosis. We developed...
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the short-term effect of Da Vinci robot-assisted thoracoscopic (RATS) bronchial sleeve lobectomy, so as to summarize its safety and effectiveness.
