Do minimally invasive approaches increase the survival of patients with early-stage lung cancer undergoing lobectomy
Abstract
The recent study “Long-term survival based on the surgical approach to lobectomy for clinical stage I nonsmall cell lung cancer: comparison of robotic, video-assisted thoracic surgery, and thoracotomy lobectomy” by Yang et al. sheds light on the benefits but also on the limits of minimally-invasive (MI) lobectomy (1).
