The Saroa surgical system, a robotic platform with haptic feedback, demonstrated feasibility and safety in anatomical pulmonary resections for lung cancer and other thoracic conditions. This early clinical use provides data for further multicenter studies.

Area of Science:

  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Robotic Surgery
  • Surgical Technology

Background:

  • Anatomical pulmonary resection is a cornerstone of thoracic surgery.
  • Advancements in robotic platforms aim to enhance surgical precision and safety.
  • The Saroa system introduces pneumatic actuation and haptic feedback for improved surgeon control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility and safety of anatomical pulmonary resection using the Saroa surgical system.
  • To evaluate the clinical performance of a novel robotic platform with haptic feedback in thoracic procedures.

Main Methods:

  • A single-institution study involving 23 patients undergoing Saroa-assisted anatomical pulmonary resection.
  • Patients had clinical N0 lung cancer, metastatic tumors, or benign diseases.

  • Grasping force and system performance data were logged and analyzed.

    • Main Results:

    • The Saroa system was feasible and safely used in 23 patients, with a low complication rate (13%).
    • Mean operative time was 252 minutes, console time was 157 minutes, and hospital stay was 6.7 days.
    • Recorded grasping forces were within safe limits, minimizing the risk of lung tissue injury.

    Conclusions:

    • Anatomical pulmonary resection with the Saroa surgical system is feasible and safe in early clinical application.
    • The Saroa system's haptic feedback and pneumatic drive show promise for thoracic surgery.
    • These findings support further multicenter trials to validate the Saroa system's efficacy.
