Impact on Respiratory Mechanics of Uniportal–Biportal Robotic Lung Resection Without Capnothorax Versus Multiportal Approach With Capnothorax: A Prospective Cohort Observational Study
Background Several robotic‐assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) techniques have been described. Main differences among them are the location of ports and CO2 insufflation, with a potential impact on respiratory mechanics. This study assesses the respiratory impact of uniportal or biportal RATS (uRATS) without capnothorax v...
