Sleeve Lobectomy for Lung Cancer in Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques
Sleeve Lobectomy for Lung Cancer in Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques: a Multicenter Cohort Study
Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University
450 participants
Mar 1, 2025
OBSERVATIONAL
Summary
The goal of this multicenter observational study is to evaluate the long-term survival and perioperative outcomes of sleeve lobectomy in robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) for patients with central lung cancer when compared with video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) approach, both of which have been already applied to these patients in minimally invasive surgical techniques as part of their regular medical care recently. The main question it aims to answer is: Are RATS sleeve lobectomy associated with similar or even better long-term survival and perioperative outcomes for patients with central lung cancer when compared with the VATS approach?
