This study introduces a novel VATS non-rib spread technique for pulmonary lobectomy in lung cancer patients. The minimally invasive approach demonstrated excellent safety and efficacy, with no mortality or major complications.

Area of Science:

  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures

Background:

  • Pulmonary lobectomy is a standard surgical procedure for malignant lung lesions.
  • Traditional open thoracotomy can lead to significant morbidity.
  • Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) offers a less invasive alternative.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel VATS non-rib spread Simultaneously Stapled Lobectomy technique.
  • To assess perioperative outcomes and short-term results in patients undergoing this new VATS lobectomy approach.

Main Methods:

  • Eighty-five consecutive patients with pulmonary neoplasms underwent VATS non-rib spread Simultaneously Stapled Lobectomy.
  • Patient demographics, tumor types, and locations were recorded.

  • Perioperative data including operating time, blood transfusion, length of stay, and complications were collected.
  • Main Results:

    • The average operating time was 84.5 minutes, with no patient requiring a blood transfusion.
    • Post-operative length of stay averaged 3.38 days.
    • There were no surgical mortalities, hemorrhages, or conversions to open surgery; all complications were minor and fully recovered.

    Conclusions:

    • VATS non-rib spread Simultaneously Stapled Lobectomy is a safe and effective minimally invasive technique for pulmonary lobectomy in malignant lesions.
    • This approach achieves outcomes comparable to traditional open surgery with reduced morbidity.
    • Further studies are warranted to confirm long-term survival data.
