Abstract:Background
Minimally invasive lobectomy is the standard treatment for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this study is to investigate postoperative recovery in a prospective trial of discharged patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer undergoing robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) versus uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (UVATS).
