ABSTRACT
Robotic tracheobronchoplasty (TBP) is a new surgical approach to treat tracheobronchomalacia (TBM), and is based on open TBP, which has undergone various technical iterations since the 1950s. The robotic approach to TBM may allow for more patients to undergo TBP, and in retrospective series has demonstrated equivalent outcomes compared to open TBP if not superior in terms of postoperative complications. Long-term data are eagerly awaited, and we describe our approach in this article.
