RATS was conducted to complete left upper lobectomy and left middle wedge resection. The patient had no intraoperative complications and was discharged day 5 after the operation.This is the first report of a successful robot-assisted lung cancer resection in a patient with SIT. In such challenging...
Rush is one of only a few institutions in the United States to offer a full range of robotic-assisted lung cancer procedures, including robotic lobectomy. The removal of a lobe (section) of the lung, lobectomy is an option for patients with early stage cancer that has not spread to other ...
Background: Single-setting anesthetic robotic navigational bronchoscopy (RNB) biopsy combined with robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is a promising novel pathway for the diagnosis and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). With a shorter time interval from diagnosis to definitive surgical...
Robotic-assisted left lower lobe basilar segmentectomy. Central Message The described steps demonstrate a safe and reproducible approach to robotic-assisted basilar segmentectomy. The role of segmentectomy in the treatment of lung cancer is continually being refined and has gained renewed attention recently...
Robotic thoracic surgery can include lung resections such as lobectomy, segmentectomy, wedge resection. Sign up for upcoming webinars and see clinical evidence.
Pulmonary resection (removal of part of lung): air leak from lungs, lung infection, inability to breathe sufficiently without extra oxygen or a breathing machine, abnormal/irregular heartbeat, breathing tube needs to be re-inserted, abnormal path for air between lung airways and pleural cavity (...
anterior spinal fusion, decompression fixation, wedge resection, lung biopsy, pleural biopsy, dissection of the internal mammary artery for coronary bypass, coronary artery bypass grafting when endoscopic visualisation is indicated, inspection of a deflated cardiac chamber during valve replacement or repair...
There are cases in the literature of awake robotic cardiac surgery[24], awake robotic partial nephrectomy[6] and awake video-assisted thoracic surgery[25]. However, to our knowledge, there are no cases in the literature of awake robotic liver resection, but just a case series of awake open ...
Thoracic surgery –Lung lobe removal; thymus removal (thymectomy) for mass or myasthenia gravis; resection of lung nodules; esophagus removal (esophagectomy); lung wedge resection; chest mass removal; pleural biopsy; benign foregut surgery; myotomy for achalasia; paraesophageal hernia repair; LINX plac...
lobectomy; lung cancer; minimally invasive surgery; robotic surgery; segmentectomy; video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS)1. Introduction Surgical resection is the standard of care for patients with early stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) [1]. Historically, surgery for lung cancer was ...
