Robotic video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (r-VATS) is safe and effective for various thoracic procedures. This study details initial single-center experience, highlighting successful outcomes and the need for surgeon training.

Area of Science:

  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Robotic Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures

Background:

  • Robotic technology advancements are transforming thoracoscopic surgery.
  • Limited data exists on robotic video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (r-VATS) procedural experience and outcomes.
  • This study presents initial single-center experience with r-VATS.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a modified r-VATS approach.
  • To document procedural details and outcomes for various thoracic operations.
  • To assess the feasibility of r-VATS in a single center.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 142 patients undergoing modified r-VATS from July 2018 to January 2020.
  • Utilized a modified multiport trocar arrangement based on surgical type.

  • Collected peri- and postoperative outcomes, including operative time, complications, and hospital stay.
  • Main Results:

    • 142 patients underwent diverse procedures including lobectomy, thymectomy, and mediastinal tumor resection.
    • Median operative time was 110 minutes, and median hospital stay was 5 days.
    • Conversion to open surgery occurred in only 2.1% of cases, with no postoperative complications or mortality.

    Conclusions:

    • The modified r-VATS method is safe and effective for various thoracic operations.
    • Thoracic surgeons require adequate training for transitioning to r-VATS.
    • Further research is needed to refine trocar configurations for routine clinical adoption.
