ABSTRACT
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.METHODS:
We reviewed data on patients who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy between January, 2019 and April, 2022. Perioperative outcomes were compared between RATS and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), using propensity-score matching.RESULTS:
RATS and VATS were performed for 83 and 571 patients, respectively. After propensity-score matching, data on 81 patients from each of the two groups were retrieved. The operative time was significantly longer for RATS than for VATS (199 ± 44 min vs. 173 ± 37 min, p < 0.001). There was no mortality or conversion to thoracotomy in either of the groups. The rates of overall complications and prolonged air leak did not differ significantly between the groups. The serum creatine phosphokinase level on postoperative day 4 was higher after RATS than after VATS. The number of resected lymph nodes and the rates of nodal upstaging did not differ significantly between the groups.CONCLUSION:
The initial perioperative outcomes of RATS using the confronting settings were comparable to those of VATS.Palabras clave
