Clinical Trial Summary

Single-POrt Robotic-assisted thoracic surgery versus single-port video-assisted Thoracic Surgery major pulmonary resection for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (SPORTS trial): a single-center, a single blinded, randomized controlled trial

Description:

Investigators initially began single-port robotic thoracic surgery using the SP robotic system for simple procedures, such as thymectomy and mediastinal mass excision. As their expertise grew, they expanded to more complex procedures, including major pulmonary resection and esophagectomy. However, the long-term outcomes of SP robotic anatomical pulmonary resection using the SP robotic system have not yet been studied.

The aim of this study is to compare the short-term and long-term outcomes of SP robotic anatomical pulmonary resection using the SP robotic system with those of single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SP-VATS) anatomical pulmonary resection.

This trial is a single-center, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial. Participants will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio to either single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SP-VATS) or single-port robotic thoracic surgery.

Intervention

Procedure:
• Single-port robotic-assisted thoracic surgery
All patients : 145 patients Single-port anatomical pulmonary resection(segmentectomy, lobectomy) with a complete mediastinal lymph node dissection will be performed using the SP robotic system. A 4-cm single incision will be made below the subcostal margin. A chest tube will be inserted in same incision.
• Single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery
All patients : 145 patients Single-port anatomical pulmonary resection(segmentectomy, lobectomy) with a complete mediastinal lymph node dissection will be performed using the VATS. A 4-cm single incision will be made at 5th intercostal space. A chest tube will be inserted in same incision.
