Lobectomy by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (CTVA) versus conventional lobectomy: three-year surgical statistics in stages I and II lungs evidence.

Abstract

Introduction: the use of video -assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lobectomy is now the preferred method for the treatment of cancer which has been increasing in surgical procedure. An analysis of the database of the Society of Thoracic Surgery (STS) showed that 20 % of all lobectomies were performed by VATS. This study reveals the most common use of this procedure for lung cancer pathology, which have been increasing in this last year (2013). This growth is due to the high evidence of the advantages of VATS lobectomy versus lobectomy by conventional thoracotomy. Case: in our case we tried to develop a study in which we can define the benefits of VATS, whereas the casuistry of our environment in the diagnosis of lung cancer, shown still limited in some places, but stresses that the surgical time has shown a slight decrease when using VATS, with shorter hospital stay, lower incidence of pain, with very low rate of surgical conversion, and a somewhat higher rate of complications than conventional thoracoscopic procedures.
