Subcostal uniportal robotic anatomic lung resection: A pilot trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery typically necessitates the use of multiple ports. The new single-port robotic system (da Vinci SP system) platform is designed to perform uniportal surgery. The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of the da Vinci SP system when used for anatomical lung resection.

Methods

Patients diagnosed with clinical stage I lung cancer requiring anatomical lung resections were considered eligible for this trial. The primary outcome measure was the rate of conversion, whereas the secondary objective focused on assessing the incidence of perioperative complications.

Results

The study included 35 patients with a median age of 63 years (range, 48-74 years). Of these, 30 underwent lobectomy a
