Fully robotic circumferential resection for midtracheal mucoepidermoid carcinoma: a report of 2 cases

A fully robotic thoracoscopic approach for midtracheal tumor resection under VV-ECMO is feasible, pending negative margins. Peroperative flexible bronchoscopy is essential to mark the lesion after endotracheal debulking. Multidisciplinary discussion is essential in the decision-making process for the treatment of MEC.

Abstract

A fully robotic thoracoscopic approach for midtracheal tumor resection under VV-ECMO is feasible, pending negative margins. Peroperative flexible bronchoscopy is essential to mark the lesion after endotracheal debulking. Multidisciplinary discussion is essential in the decision-making process for the treatment of MEC.
