Review Title: | Uniportal robotic lung resection techniques |
Abstract: | Uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgical (U-VATS) and telerobotic techniques have become widely adopted strategies for lung resection and represent a natural progression born of advancing technologic innovation and decades of expanding clinical experience. Combining the best that each approach offers may be the next logical step in the evolution of minimally invasive thoracic surgery. Two parallel efforts are underway: one that combines the traditional U-VATS incision with a multi-arm telerobotic platform and one that utilizes a new single-arm device. Feasibility and refinement of surgical technique will need to be achieved before any conclusions about efficacy can be drawn. Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. |
