Robotic tracheal resections on veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation with 23-hour length of stay and without guardian chin stitch
Resection of mid-to-distal primary tracheal cancers can be performed safely and efficiently via a right robotic approach while on VV ECMO with little to no morbidity or mortality and require only an overnight hospital stay. The techniques used to perform the operation and achieve these results are described.
