Robotic-assisted extended thymectomy for large resectable thymoma: 21 years’ experience
Objective
This study aims to evaluate the perioperative and midterm oncological outcomes of robotic-assisted thoracic surgery extended thymectomy for patients with large resectable thymomas compared with small thymomas.
Methods
This retrospective single-center study included 204 patients with thymomas who underwent robotic-assisted thoracic surgery extended thymectomy between January 2003 and February 2024. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the thymoma size (5-cm threshold).
Results
The study comprised 114 patients (55.9%) in the small thymoma group and 90 patients (44.1%) in the large thymoma group. No significant differences were found between the groups regarding gender, age, proportion of elderly patients, or pathologic high-risk classifications. Apart from a longer operative time (P = .009) in the large thymoma group, no differences were observed between the 2 groups regarding surgical parameters and postoperative outcomes. No deaths occurred within 30 days in either group. During a median follow-up of 61.0 months (95% CI, 48.96-73.04), 4 patients experienced recurrence (1.96%). No significant differences in the 5-year overall survival (P = .25) or recurrence-free survival (P = .43) were observed between groups.
Conclusions
Robotic-assisted thoracic surgery extended thymectomy is technically feasible, safe, and effective for treating large resectable thymomas. Moreover, midterm outcomes for patients with completely resected large thymomas were comparable to those with small thymomas during a median follow-up period of up to 5 years.
