Developing novel non-assistant help operation in dual-portal robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (neoDRATS)
NeoDRATS offers a practical, safe, and minimally invasive alternative to conventional multiportal and uniportal robotic-assisted thoracic surgeries. This technique simplifies the surgical process, particularly in settings with limited availability of skilled assistants, and represents a significant advancement in robotic thoracic surgery. Further refinement and clinical integration of neoDRATS are anticipated as robotic innovations continue to evolve.
