Evaluation of the Learning Curve Threshold in Robot-Assisted Lung Cancer Surgery: A Nationwide Population-Based Study
This study suggests that the threshold of 25 procedures may not be sufficient to validate the robot-assisted surgery learning curve in lung cancer surgery. To significantly reduce postoperative complications, a hospital would need to perform 94 to 174 procedures to guarantee patient safety.
