A multi-center retrospective study of single-port vs multi-port video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy and anatomic segmentectomy
Journal of Thoracic Disease Nov 03, 2017
Ji C, et al. - This study was conducted to compare the feasibility and perioperative outcomes of two different surgical approaches viz, single-port (SP) and multi-port (MP) approaches, in patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy or anatomical segmentectomy. Researchers found that SP VATS lobectomy and anatomical segmentectomy vs MP VATS was technologically more demanding. It was concluded that, when performed by experienced surgeons, SP VATS lobectomy and anatomical segmentectomy can be safe and feasible, with comparable preoperative outcomes to MP VATS, but less pain in the early postoperative period.
