NCT07099105 | Completed DMC

• 1 other identifier: 2025GR0224
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 339
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is compared the perioperative outcomes of robotic lobectomy using the SP system via the subcostal approach with those of multi-port robotic lobectomy using the Xi system via the intercostal approach.

Conditions

Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Postoperative pain

  Postoperative pain using visual analog scale (minimum =0, maximum=10), A lower value reflects a lesser degree of pain perception (lower scores mean a better outcome)

  Postoperatively day 0,1,2,3

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• chest tube duration

  Perioperative

Study Arms (2)

SP group

Patients with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent single-port robotic lobectomy. All procedures were performed using the SP system via the subcostal approach.

MP

Patients with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent multi-port robotic lobectomy. All procedures were performed using the Xi system via the intercostal approach.

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

patients aged \> 18 years who underwent robotic lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer at the Korea University Guro Hospital between January 2017 and December 2024. Patients were categorized into the SP and MP groups based on the surgical approach employed.

You may qualify if:

• patients aged \> 18 years who underwent RATS lobectomy for NSCLC at the Korea University Guro Hospital between January 2017 and December 2024

You may not qualify if:

• patients who underwent Viedo-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy
• patients who underwent robotic lobectomy with other combined surgery
• patients who received neoadjuvant therapy
