“…The other groups also reported a three-arm technique with one utility port. 9,[15][16][17] Cerfolio et al reported a four-arm technique without a utility incision, while Veronesi et al included the incision. 5,8) Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) insufflation to achieve maximal surgical exposure while compressing the lung away from the operative area may provide the benefit for thoracoscopic surgery.…”

“…[37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45] Thus, the author reviewed reports from Western countries on robot-assisted lobectomy containing perioperative data after 2006 ( Table 3). Regarding the surgical procedure, three robot arms were mainly used, and only Veronesi, et al, 39) and Cerfolio, et al 44) used four arms.…”

The safety and effi cacy of thoracoscopic and robot-assisted lobectomies for primary lung cancer were reviewed in the literature. Thoracoscopic surgery is less invasive compared to thoracotomy, and it has been reported to be superior with regard to the outcome. In addition, the operability of a surgical robot (da Vinci) is favorable and supplements the disadvantages of conventional endoscopic surgery. Robot-assisted lobectomy has been reported to be comparable to thoracoscopic surgery with regard to the safety and effi cacy based on analysis of perioperative results and superior with regard to the operability and length of the learning curve. However, a high cost and a long operative time are of concern. Since robot-assisted surgery has been performed only in early cases, the continuation of a comparative investigation may be necessary.

“…Ninan and Dylewski [13] described a robotic lobectomy with three arms: the robotic camera port is placed in the 5th or 6th intercostal space, directly over the mid-fissure area. The two other ports are placed in the same intercostal space anteriorly and posteriorly, in order to avoid multiple intercostal neurovascular bundles.…”
