Abstract
Background: To investigate the effect of Robotic Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (RATS) in comparison to Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) and Open Thoracotomy (OP) in bronchial sleeve lobectomy (BSL) by Bayesian network meta-analysis.
Methods: After searching Pubmed, the Cochrane Library and Embase for research, 7 papers with 776 individuals with central non-small cell lung cancer that required BSL were found. Data for analysis entailed intraoperative outcomes, complications, and long-term survival.
Results: The RATS group exhibited a shorter operation time, diminished intraoperative blood loss, and reduced postoperative drainage time without an elevation in the frequency of postoperative complications; in Additionally, the RATS group demonstrated an equivalent postoperative long-term survival rate when juxtaposed with the VATS and OP groups.
Conclusions: Compared with VATS and OP in BSL, RATS has a better intraoperative application effect, less surgical impact and the same long-term survival rate. RATS has emerged as a viable and potentially favoured surgical approach for BSL.
