Impact of robotic-assisted versus video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery on efficacy and quality of life in patients with pulmonary opacities: a propensity score-matched analysis
RATS indicated shorter operative time, reduced postoperative complications, shorter hospital stay, less intraoperative blood loss and less compared to VATS in patients with pulmonary opacities. Although hospitalization costs were higher, RATS was associated with improved postoperative pain management and QOL regarding pain/discomfort.
