Background: Total tubeless (TT) single-port thoracoscopic wedge resection is a novel minimally invasive surgical technique for treating peripheral pulmonary nodules. This study aims to evaluate its ...
Background: Postoperative infections, as related to risk factors, in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) procedures have been studied infrequently. Conclusions: This ...
Background: The concept of tubeless anesthesia has emerged as a transformative approach in modern anesthesiology, particularly within the framework of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). However, ...
Accurate preoperative localisation of pulmonary nodules is essential for minimally invasive resection and diagnostic precision. Techniques fall into percutaneous and bronchoscopic approaches, each ...
Congenital lung malformations (CLM) are most commonly treated with a pulmonary lobectomy. However, due to technological advancement, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) segmentectomy is ...
A new meta-analysis provided high-quality evidence demonstrating that video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) significantly reduces the risk for death by 21% compared with open lobectomy in ...
Researchers took both the learning curve of the new process and the COVID-19 pandemic into consideration. A new cost analysis found some evidence that the initial increased costs associated with robot ...
