TLDR
In this paper , a propensity score adjusted logistic regression analysis was used to compare the rate of conversion to thoracotomy between the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and RTS cohorts.

Updated Evaluation of Robotic- and Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Lobectomy or Segmentectomy for Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

TL;DR: RATS is a safe and feasible alternative to VATS for patients with lung cancer and there were no significant differences in operative time, any complications, tumor size, chest drain duration, R0 resection rate, lymph station, 5-year overall survival, and recurrence rate.

Would the width of a metal rib spreader affect postoperative pain in patients who undergo video-assisted mini-thoracotomy (VAMT)?

TL;DR: The smaller the width of the metal rib spreader used in surgery, the less pain experienced by the patient and the faster the recovery.

Editors' Choice: Challenges of Randomized Trials of Cardiothoracic Surgery.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors present two randomized trials that address highly relevant questions while illustrating several of the major challenges presented by randomizing cardiothoracic surgery patients and underline the need for observational studies from single centers and large registries designed to inform practice by addressing the large number of major clinical questions that are not amenable to randomized studies.

Perioperative outcomes of robotic‐assisted versus video‐assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy: A propensity score matched analysis

Wu Zhiqiang
- 18 May 2023 - 
TL;DR: The existing literature on perioperative outcomes of robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) versus video assisted thoracoscopy (VATS) for lung lobectomy is inconclusive as discussed by the authors .

VATS Lobectomy Has Better Perioperative Outcomes Than Open Lobectomy: CALGB 31001, an Ancillary Analysis of CALGB 140202 (Alliance)

TL;DR: This multi-institutional study supports the assertion that thoracoscopic lobectomy results in shorter hospital length of stay, fewer perioperative complications, and greater likelihood of independent home discharge compared with open lobectomy for early-stage lung cancer.
