Abstract
Background TNM staging is the most important prognosticator for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Staging has significant implications for the treatment modality for these patients. Lymph node dissection in robot-assisted thoracoscopic (RATS) surgery remains an area of ongoing evaluation. In this study, we aim to compare lymph node dissection in RATS and VATS approach for lung resection in NSCLC patients. Methods We retrospectively compiled a database of 717 patients from July 31, 2015-July 7, 2022, who underwent either a wedge resection, segmentectomy or lobectomy. We analysed the database according to lymph node dissection. The database was divided into RATS (n = 375) and VATS (n = 342) procedures. Results The mean number of lymph nodes harvested overall with RATS was 6.1 ± 1.5 nodes; with VATS approach, it was 5.53 ± 1.8 nodes. The mean number of N1 stations harvested was 2.66 ± 0.8 with RATS, 2.36 ± 0.9 with VATS. RATS approach showed statistically higher lymph node dissection rates compared to VATS (p = 0.002). Out of the 375 RATS procedures, 26 (6.4%) patients undergoing a RATS procedure were upstaged from N0/N1 staging to N2. N0/N1-N2 upstaging was reported in 28 of 342 (8.2%) patients undergoing a VATS procedure. The majority of upstaging was seen in N0-N2 disease: 19 of 375 (5%) for RATS and 23 of 342 (6.7%) for VATS. Conclusions We conclude that in RATS procedures, there is a higher rate of lymph node dissection compared to VATS procedures. Upstaging was mostly seen in N0-N2 disease, this was observed at a higher rate with VATS procedures.

Comparison of early postoperative patient-reported outcomes after multiportal robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for non-small cell lung cancer. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2024; 50:108481. [PMID: 38959845 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2024.108481] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION We aimed to compare early postoperative patient-reported outcomes between multiportal robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (M-RATS) and uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (U-VATS) for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Symptom severity and functional status were measured using the Perioperative Symptom Assessment for Lung Surgery at pre-surgery, during postoperative hospitalisation, and within 4 weeks of discharge. A propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis of patients with NSCLC who were treated with M-RATS and U-VATS was performed. The symptom severity and daily functional status presented as proportion of moderate-to-severe scores on a 0-10-point scale, were compared using a generalised estimation equation model. RESULTS We enrolled 762 patients with NSCLC from a prospective cohort (CN-PRO-Lung 3), including 151 and 611 who underwent M-RATS and U-VATS, respectively, before PSM analysis. After 1:1 PSM, two groups of 148 patients each were created. Pain severity (P = 0.019) and activity limitation (P = 0.001) during hospitalisation were higher in the M-RATS group. However, no significant differences existed post-discharge in pain (P = 0.383), cough (P = 0.677), shortness of breath (P = 0.526), disturbed sleep (P = 0.525), drowsiness (P = 0.304), fatigue (P = 0.153), distress (P = 0.893), walking difficulty (P = 0.242), or activity limitation (P = 0.513). M-RATS caused less intraoperative blood loss (P = 0.013), more stations of dissected lymph nodes (P = 0.001), more numbers of dissected lymph nodes (P = 0.001), and less tube drainage on the first postoperative day (P = 0.003) than U-VATS. CONCLUSION M-RATS and U-VATS achieved comparable symptom burden and functional impairment after discharge. However, compared to U-VATS, M-RATS was associated with more severe pain and activity limitation in the short postoperative period. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ChiCTR2000033016.

Abstract
The objective is to preliminary evaluated postoperative leukocyte counts as a surrogate for the surgical stress response in NSCLC patients who underwent RATS or VATS for further prospective analyses with proper assessment of surgical stress response and tissue trauma. We retrospectively analyzed patients with stageI-IIIA NSCLC who underwent RATS or VATS at a hospital between 8 May 2020 and 31 December 2021. Analysis of leukocytes (including neutrophils and lymphocytes) and albumin on postoperative days (PODs) 1 and 3 in patients with NSCLC treated with RATS or VATS after propensity score matching (PSM). In total, 1824 patients (565 RATS and 1259 VATS) were investigated. The two MIS groups differed significantly with regard to operative time (p < 0.001), chronic lung disease (p < 0.001), the type of pulmonary resection (p < 0.001), the excision site of lobectomy (p = 0.004), and histology of the tumor (p = 0.028). After PSM, leukocyte and neutrophil levels in the RATS group were lower than those in the VATS group on PODs 1 and 3, with those on POD 3 (p < 0.001) being particularly notable. While lymphocyte levels in the RATS group were significantly lower than those in the VATS group only at POD 1 (p = 0.016). There was no difference in albumin levels between the RATS and VATS groups on PODs 1 and 3. The surgical stress response and tissue trauma was less severe in NSCLC patients who underwent RATS than in those who underwent VATS, especially reflected in the neutrophils of leukocytes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aimed to assess clinical effect of three-port inflatable robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in mediastinal tumor resection by comparing results of the robot group with the video group. METHODS Retrospectively analyze 179 patients diagnosed with anterior mediastinal tumor from May 2017 to August 2021. Two groups were divided according to the surgical approach, including 92 cases in the RATS group and 87 cases in the VATS group. The results were analyzed between two groups with variables of age, sex, BMI, tumor size, and diagnosis. Perioperative clinical data was gathered to compare. RESULT There were no significant differences between the 2 groups with regards to demographic data and clinical features. There were no significant differences inoperative time and duration of chest tube via RATS vs. VATS. The intraoperative blood loss was statistically significantly different among the RATS and VATS groups (75.9 ± 39.6 vs. 97.4 ± 35.8 ml p = 0.042). The postoperative stay of patients in RATS group were significantly shorter than that in VATS group (2.3 ± 1.0 vs. 3.4 ± 1.4 day p = 0.035), CONCLUSION: Three-port inflatable robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for mediastinal tumor is feasible and reliable it is more advantageous, and it provides the surgeon with advice on treatment choice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is a rapidly expanding technique. In our study, we aimed to analyze the results of the process to adopt robotic surgery in our Department of Thoracic Surgery. METHODS This is an intention-to-treat analysis of a series of consecutive patients operated on using the RATS approach in our hospital from January 2021 to March 2022. Data were registered for patient characteristics, type of surgery, operative times, conversion rate, chest tube duration, length of hospital stay and complications. The IBM SPSS® statistical software was used for the statistical analysis. A cumulative sum analysis of the operating time was performed to define the learning curve. RESULTS During the study period, 51 patients underwent robotic surgery, including pulmonary and non-pulmonary interventions. In addition, 15 patients (29.4%) underwent non-pulmonary interventions: one pleural (2%), 2 diaphragmatic (3.9%), and 12 mediastinal (23.5%). Among the mediastinal surgeries, one conversion was necessary (8.3%) for a complex vascular malformation, and 11 were completed by RATS, including 7 (58.3%) thymomas, 3 (25%) pleuro-pericardial cysts, and one (8.3%) neurogenic tumor. Mean operative time was 141 min (104-178), mean chest tube duration was 0.9 days (0-2), and mean length of stay was 1.45 days (1-2). Thirty-six patients underwent lung surgery (70.6%). The complete RATS resections (34; 94.4%) included: 3 wedge resections (11.1%), 2 segmentectomies (3.7%), 28 lobectomies (81.5%), and one sleeve lobectomy (3.7%). Mean surgery time was 194.56 min (141-247), chest tube duration was 3.92 days (1-8), and length of stay was 4.6 days (1-8). Complications occurred in 4 patients (11.1%). No 90-day mortalities were registered. CONCLUSIONS The implementation of RATS was achieved with good clinical results and operative times for all indications. A rapid learning curve was accomplished in short time. Previous VATS experience, patient selection, team training and program continuity are fundamental to successfully develop a RATS program.

Abstract
Introduction We aimed to compare postoperative outcomes after pulmonary resection for lung cancer after open thoracotomy (OT), video-assisted (VATS), and robotic-assisted (RA) thoracic surgery using a propensity score analysis. Methods From 2010 to 2020, 38,423 patients underwent resection for lung cancer. In total, 58.05% (n = 22,306) were operated by thoracotomy, 35.35% (n = 13,581) by VATS, and 6.6% (n = 2536) by RA. A propensity score was used to create balanced groups with weighting. End points were in-hospital mortality, postoperative complications, and length of hospital stay, reported by odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results VATS decreased in-hospital mortality compared with OT (OR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.58-0.79; P < .0001) but not compared with RA (OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.77-1.52; P = .61). VATS reduced major postoperative complications compared with OT (OR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.76-0.92; P < .0001) but not RA (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.84-1.21; P = .17). VATS reduced prolonged air leaks rate compared with OT (OR, 0.9; 95% CI, 0.84-0.98; P = .015) but not RA (OR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.88-1.18; P = .77). As compared with OT, VATS and RA decreased the incidence of atelectasis (respectively: OR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.50-0.65; P < .0001 and OR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.60-0.95; P = .016); the incidence of pneumonia (OR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.67-0.83; P < .0001 and OR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.50-0.78; P < .0001); and the number of postoperative arrhythmias (OR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.61-0.78; P < .0001 and OR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.59-0.96; P = .024). Both VATS and RA resulted in shorter hospital stays (-1.91 days [-2.24; -1.58]; P < .0001 and -2.73 days [-3.1; -2.36]; P < .0001, respectively). Conclusions RA appeared to decrease postoperative pulmonary complications as well as VATS compared with OT. VATS decreased postoperative mortality as compared with RA and OT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The existing literature on perioperative outcomes of robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) versus video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lung lobectomy is inconclusive. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis of VATS and RATS lobectomy procedures for patients with non-small cell lung cancer to compare the short-term perioperative outcomes by propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. RESULTS A total of 418 patients were enrolled in this study. After PSM, 71 patients each received VATS and RATS lobectomy for further analysis. RATS lobectomy was associated with a lower rate of conversion to thoracotomy (0% vs. 5.63%, p = 0.006), a lower rate of postoperative prolonged air leak (1.14% vs. 19.72%, p = 0.001) and a shorter duration of postoperative chest tube drainage (3 days interquartile range [IQR: 3, 4] vs. 4 days IQR [3-5], p = 0.027). Subgroup analysis indicated that after acquiring proficiency in the RATS procedure, its disadvantages diminished while its advantages were enhanced. In terms of rate of conversion to thoracotomy, length of hospital stays, and duration of postoperative chest tube drainage, RATS was comparable to uniportal VATS and superior to triportal VATS. CONCLUSION RATS has advantages over VATS in terms of early chest tube removal, early discharge, lower thoracotomy rate, less postoperative air leak, and a potential trend of more lymph node dissection numbers. These advantages are more pronounced after acquiring proficiency in RATS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, robotic surgery is widely used in thoracic surgery, which has higher maneuverability, precision, and stability, especially for small space complex operations and reconstructive surgery. The advantages of robotic lung segment resection under full orifice artificial pneumothorax are obvious. METHODS Based on a large number of clinical practices, we established a set of surgical methods for 4-arm robotic lung segment resection under a port-only artificial pneumothorax. 98 cases of robotic lung segment resection were performed with this method from January 2019 to August 2022. The clinical experience was summarized. RESULTS Robotic lung segment resection under port-only artificial pneumothorax has obvious advantages in the anatomy of lung segment vessels and bronchi. It is characterized by less bleeding, shorter operation time, adequate exposure, and flexible operation. CONCLUSIONS This surgical model we propose optimizes the operation mode and technique of lung segment resection, makes each step procedural, reduces collateral damage, and is easy to learn and master, which is believed to cure more lung cancer patients with less trauma.

[PMID: 35720224 PMCID: PMC9200580 DOI: 10.1155/2022/5496872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2022] [Revised: 03/24/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Objective To assess the clinical efficacy of thoracoscopic surgery with the da Vinci surgical system versus video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lung cancer. Methods From August 2019 to December 2020, 193 patients with lung cancer assessed for eligibility scheduled for surgery in our hospital were recruited and assigned at a ratio of 1 : 1 to receive VATS (control group) or thoracoscopic surgery with the da Vinci surgical system (research group). The primary measurement is the clinical efficacy of the two surgical modalities. Results The baseline features of the research group were comparable with those of the control group (P > 0.05). Besides, the two groups showed similar tumor types, tumor locations, and clinicopathological staging (P > 0.05). Da Vinci surgical system-assisted thoracoscopic surgery had short operative time, less intraoperative blood loss, better lymph node dissection, and lower intraoperative conversion rates compared to VATS. Compared with the control group, the research group had significantly higher postoperative forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV), the functional assessment of cancer therapy-general module (FACT-G) of the FACT-lung (FACT-L) Chinese version V4.0, lung cancer-specific module scores, and total scores (P < 0.05). The research group showed better postoperative drainage volume, shorter intubation duration, and length of hospital stay and a lower incidence of complications versus the control group (P < 0.05). The da Vinci surgical system reduced the probability of intraoperative mistakes and better ensured a safe and satisfactory surgery. Conclusion The thoracoscopic surgery with the da Vinci surgical system better reduces intraoperative and postoperative bleeding, shortens drainage and intubation duration, enhances the lung function and survival quality of patients, and lowers the risk of surgical mistakes to ensure surgical safety versus VATS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) makes up the majority of lung cancer cases. Currently, surgical resection is the gold standard of treatment. However, as patients are becoming medically more complex presenting with advanced disease, minimally invasive image-guided percutaneous ablations are gaining popularity. Therefore, comparison of surgical, ablative and second-line external beam therapies will help clinicians, as management of NSCLC changes. We will conduct a meta-analysis, reviewing literature investigating these therapies in adult patients diagnosed with stage 1 NSCLC, with neither hilar nor mediastinal nodal involvement, confirmed either through cytology or histology regardless of type. METHODS AND ANALYSIS We will search electronic databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, ClinicalTrials.gov, Cochrane) from their inception to January 2021 to identify randomised controlled trials (RCTs), cluster RCTs and cohort studies comparing survival and clinical outcomes between any two interventions (lobectomy, wedge resection, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery/robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, cryoablation and consolidated radiation therapies (external beam radiation therapy, stereotactic body radiation therapy, and 3D conformal radiation therapy). The primary outcomes will include cancer-specific survival, lung disease-free survival, locoregional recurrence, death, toxicity and non-target organ injury. We will also search published and unpublished studies in trial registries and will review references of included studies for possible inclusion. Risk of bias will be assessed using tools developed by the Cochrane collaboration. Two reviewers will independently assess the eligibility of studies and conduct the corresponding risk of bias assessments. For each outcome, given enough studies, we will conduct a network meta-analysis. Finally, we will use the Confidence in Network Meta-Analysis tool to assess quality of the evidence for each of the primary outcomes. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION We aim to share our findings through high-impact peer review. As interventional techniques become more popular, it will be important for providers in multidisciplinary teams caring for these patients to receive continuing medical education related to these interventions. Data will be made available to readers. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42021276629.

Robotic and video-assisted lobectomy/segmentectomy for non-small cell lung cancer have similar perioperative outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Transl Cancer Res 2022; 10:3883-3893. [PMID: 35116688 PMCID: PMC8798077 DOI: 10.21037/tcr-21-646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background At present, the clinical conclusion that robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) and video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), which is better for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is not clear. Therefore, this meta-analysis aimed to compare the perioperative outcomes between RATS and VATS for NSCLC. Methods The Population, Interventions, Comparators, Outcomes, and Study design (PICOS) framework was employed to develop the search strategy, and the findings was reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. We searched EMbase, The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wan Fang Data to collect clinical studies about RATS vs. VATS for patients with NSCLC from inception to October 2019. The following outcomes were measured: rate of conversion to thoracotomy, postoperative complications, postoperative hospital mortality, lymph node dissection, hospitalization time, operating time, and postoperative drainage days. Estimation of potential publication bias was conducted by Begg’s test and Egger’s test. The Standardized Mean Difference (SMD) and Odds Ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were pooled using Stata 15.0 software. Results A total of 18 studies involving 60,349 patients were included. Among them, 8,726 cases were in the RATS group, and 51,623 were in the VATS group. The results of meta-analysis showed that the operation time of RATS group was longer than that of VATS group (SMD=0.532, 95% CI: 0.391–0.674, P=0.000). And the further meta-analysis suggested that the incidence of postoperative complications was lower in patients who underwent RATS after 2015 (OR=0.848, 95% CI: 0.748–0.962, P=0.010). Meanwhile, there was no significant difference between both groups in postoperative hospitalization time (SMD=0.003, 95% CI: −0.104–0.110, P=0.957). In addition, more lymph nodes were retrieved in RATS group than VATS (SMD=0.308, 95% CI: 0.131–0.486, P=0.001). However, the conversion rate, retrieved lymph node station, days to tube removal and in-hospital mortality rate have no significant differences between both groups. Discussion The current meta-analysis indicates that the perioperative outcomes of RATS and VATS for NSCLC are equivalence. Due to the limited quantity and quality of included studies, the above conclusions still need to be verified by more high-quality studies.

Abstract
Background Our previous study demonstrated the safety and short-term efficacy of robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) in clinical N2 (c-N2) stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. From this, the present study was devised, in which the follow-up time and sample size were both extended to explore the long-term efficacy and potential benefit in survival of RATS compared with lobectomy in c-N2 stage NSCLC patients. Methods Patients with c-N2 NSCLS were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to accept operation through thoracotomy or RATS. The da Vinci Surgical System (Si/Xi) was applied in the RATS group, while conventional lobectomy with a rib-spreading incision was applied in the posterolateral thoracotomy group. Primary endpoint was defined as disease free survival and overall survival (OS) of all recruited patients. Results Compared with posterolateral thoracotomy group (N=72), the RATS group (N=76) had a reduced blood loss (P<0.001), decreased drainage duration (P=0.002), and decreased postoperative pain visual analog score (all P<0.001), but increased overall cost (P<0.001). Meanwhile, no difference in the other postoperative complications (such as air leakage, subcutaneous emphysema, atrial fibrillation etc.) was found between the RATS group and the posterolateral thoracotomy group (all P>0.05). Regarding long-term outcome, no difference in disease-free survival (DFS; P=0.925) or OS (P=0.853) was observed between the RATS group and posterolateral thoracotomy group. Subgroup analyses and multivariable Cox regression analyses also found no difference in DFS or OS between the RATS group and posterolateral thoracotomy groups. Conclusions RATS reduced intraoperative bleeding, drainage duration, postoperative pain, and achieved similar long-term survival outcomes compared with posterolateral thoracotomy in c-N2 stage NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Introduction We report the results of the first prospective international randomized control trial to compare the perioperative outcome and surgical radicality of the robotic approach with those of traditional video-assisted surgery in the treatment of early-stage lung cancer. Methods Patients with clinical stage T1–T2, N0–N1 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were randomly assigned to robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) or video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) resection arms. The primary objective was the incidence of adverse events including complications and conversion to thoracotomy. The secondary objectives included extent of lymph node (LN) dissection and other indicators. Results This trial was closed at 83 cases as the probability of concluding in favor of the robot arm for the primary outcome was null according to the observed trend. In this study, we report the results of the analysis conducted on the patients enrolled until trial suspension. Thirty-nine cases were randomized in the VATS arm and 38 in the robotic arm. Six patients were excluded from analysis. Despite finding no difference between the two arms in perioperative complications, conversions, duration of surgery, or duration of postoperative stay, a significantly greater degree of LN assessment by the robotic technique was observed in regards to the median number of sampled LN stations [6, interquartile range (IQR) 4–6 vs. 4, IQR 3–5; p = 0.0002], hilar LNs (7, IQR 5–10 vs. 4, IQR 2–7; p = 0.0003), and mediastinal LNs (7, IQR 5–10 vs. 5, IQR 3–7; p = 0.0001). Conclusions The results of this trial demonstrated that RATS was not superior to VATS considering the perioperative outcome for early-stage NSCLC, but the robotic approach allowed an improvement of LN dissection. Further studies are suggested to validate the results of this trial. Clinical Trial Registration clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT02804893.

Abstract
Background Robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) has an increasing usage throughout the world. This retrospective cohort study aimed to objectively compare the surgical results between video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and RATS in posterior mediastinal neurogenic tumors (PMNT). Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 130 patients diagnosed with posterior mediastinal neurogenic tumor between 2015 and 2018. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or enhanced computed tomography scan (CT-scan) was used to locate the tumor and investigate the Adamkiewicz’s artery preoperatively. The individual surgical approach was determined by both tumor size and patient’s willings. Results The surgical time in RATS (43.2±12.6 min) was tended to be less than that in VATS (47.4±11.9 min) (P=0.054). Meanwhile, the estimated blood loss in RATS group (85.8±22.6 mL) was significantly less than that in VATS group (95.3±28.4 mL) (P=0.040). However, the duration of chest tube (days) and volume of drainage (mL) had no significant difference between two groups (P=0.12 and P=0.68, respectively). The postoperative hospital stay (days) of patients in RATS group (2.2±0.4 days) was significantly shorter than that in VATS group (2.4±0.6 days) (P=0.031). There were no significant differences between two groups in the incidence of the postoperative complications and adverse reactions. Conclusions RATS has the superiorities in terms of surgical blood loss and postoperative hospital stay over VATS for posterior mediastinal neurogenic tumor. In conclusion, RATS could be a feasible and safe way for resecting posterior mediastinal neurogenic tumor.
