Long‐term outcomes of robot versus video-assisted thymectomy for thymic epithelial tumors: a propensity matched analysis
Compared with VATS, robotic thymectomy demonstrated excellent perioperative outcomes, and RATS achieved long-term oncologic outcomes comparable to those of VATS. RATS thymectomy could be considered as an effective alternative approach for treating thymic epithelial tumors.
