Robotic vs. uniportal lobectomy: a prospective analysis of postoperative pain, analgesic requirements, and individual risk factors
Robotic-assisted surgery is associated with higher postoperative pain compared to uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopy, with differences being more pronounced in female patients. We recommend implementing targeted analgesic strategies for robotic procedures and considering the use of 8-mm ports instead of standard 12-mm ports to reduce chest wall trauma.
