Comparison Results of Three-Port Robot-Assisted and Uniportal Video-Assisted Lobectomy for Functional Recovery Index in the Treatment of Early Stage Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive lobectomy is the standard treatment for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this study is to investigate postoperative recovery in a prospective trial of discharged patients with early stage non-s...

Robotic Versus Thoracoscopic Sub-lobar Resection for Octogenarians with Clinical Stage IA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: A Propensity Score-Matched Real-World Study.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive sub-lobectomy is sufficient in treating small early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, comparison of the feasibility and oncologic efficacy between robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) and video-a...

Effect of da Vinci robot versus thoracoscopic surgery on lung function and oxidative stress levels in NSCLC patients: a propensity score-matched study.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the short-term efficacy, lung function, and oxidative stress levels between the robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery group (VATS) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

A comparative study of robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and conventional approaches for short-term outcomes of anatomical segmentectomy.

General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
OBJECTIVES: Since anatomical segmentectomy requires meticulous dissection of the segmental pulmonary vessels and bronchus, robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) has been widely adopted in recent years. We investigated the usefulness of RATS seg...

Early chest tube removal regardless of drainage volume after anatomic pulmonary resection: A multicenter, randomized, controlled trial.

The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of early chest tube removal after anatomic pulmonary resection, regardless of the drainage volume.

Differences Between Attending and Trainee Surgeon Performance Using Objective Performance Indicators During Robot-Assisted Lobectomy.

Innovations (Philadelphia, Pa.)
OBJECTIVE: Existing approaches for assessing surgical performance are subjective and prone to bias. In contrast, utilizing digital kinematic and system data from the surgical robot allows the calculation of objective performance indicators (OPIs) tha...

National learning curves among robotic thoracic surgeons in the United States: Quantifying the impact of procedural experience on efficiency and productivity gains.

The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to characterize the aggregate learning curves of US surgeons for robotic thoracic procedures and to quantify the impact on productivity.

Starting a robotic thoracic surgery program: From wedge resection to sleeve lobectomy in six months. Initial conclusions.

Cirugia espanola
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is a rapidly expanding technique. In our study, we aimed to analyze the results of the process to adopt robotic surgery in our Department of Thoracic Surgery.

Robot-assisted thoracoscopic right upper lobectomy with displaced B and absence of minor fissure: a case report.

Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA
INTRODUCTION: B downward-shifting is a rare bronchial anomaly characterized by abnormal pulmonary arteries associated with downward displacement of B and complete fusion between the right upper and middle lobes.
