Robot-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy as treatment of a giant bulla.

Journal of cardiothoracic surgery
BACKGROUND: A bulla is a marked enlarged space within the parenchyma of the lung. Bullae may cause dyspnea by compressing healthy lung parenchyma and can cause a pneumothorax. Also, bullae are associated with malignancy, therefore surgical bullectomy...

Feasibility and safety of robot-assisted thoracic surgery for lung lobectomy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

World journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) lobectomy versus video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for lobectomy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Surgery for predominant lesion in nonlocalized bronchiectasis.

The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
OBJECTIVE: Patients with nonlocalized bronchiectasis are encountered commonly; however, there is little information regarding surgical intervention in this patient population. The aim of this study was to evaluate symptomatic response and safety of a...

Advances in Uniportal Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery: Pushing the Envelope.

Thoracic surgery clinics
Uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) represents a radical change in the approach to lung resection compared with conventional VATS. Because the placement of the surgical instruments and the camera is done through the same incision, unipor...

Robotic and video-assisted thoracic surgery lung segmentectomy for malignant and benign lesions.

Interactive cardiovascular and thoracic surgery
OBJECTIVES: The experience with robotic techniques (RATS) and video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in pulmonary segmentectomy is still limited. We evaluated our prospectively recorded database to compare two different minimally invasive techniques.

Artificial intelligence-based pulmonary vessel segmentation: an opportunity for automated three-dimensional planning of lung segmentectomy.

Interdisciplinary cardiovascular and thoracic surgery
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop an automated method for pulmonary artery and vein segmentation in both left and right lungs from computed tomography (CT) images using artificial intelligence (AI). The segmentations were evaluated using PulmoS...

Cross language transformation of free text into structured lobectomy surgical records from a multi center study.

Scientific reports
In a recent study, the effectiveness of GPT-4 Omni in transforming lobectomy surgical records into structured data across multiple languages was explored. The aim was to improve both efficiency and accuracy in documenting thoracic surgical oncology p...

Accuracy of artificial intelligence-based simulation for assessing lung vessels and volume using unenhanced computed tomography.

European journal of cardio-thoracic surgery : official journal of the European Association for Cardio-thoracic Surgery
OBJECTIVES: The advantages of preoperative three-dimensional (3D) image simulations, which require enhanced computed tomography (ECT), for anatomical lung resection are well documented. However, the necessity for contrast agent presents a significant...
