BACKGROUND: Day surgery has been widely carried out in medical developed countries such as Europe and the United States with high efficiency, safety and economy. The development of thoracic day surgery started late, and currently only a few top three...
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to compare the perioperative efficacy and safety of da Vinci robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) for treating anterior mediastinal tumors through the subxiphoid and lateral thoracic approaches under t...
PURPOSE: Most robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) is performed from the vertical view. This study evaluates the initial outcomes of our novel confronting RATS technique, in which the patient was viewed horizontally, as in open thoracotomy.
BACKGROUND: Our study aimed to compare the short-term outcomes between robot-assisted segmentectomy (RAS) and video-assisted segmentectomy (VAS) for small pulmonary nodules.
BACKGROUND: Studies of robotic lobectomy (Robot-L) have been performed using data from high-volume, specialty centers which may not be generalizable. The purpose of this study was to compare mortality, length of stay (LOS), and cost between Robot-L a...
