Abstract
In this comparison of robotic and VATS lobectomy for clinically node-negative lung cancer that was managed with consistent surgical technique and pathologic evaluation, the rate of nodal upstaging achieved by robotics appears similar to VATS. In addition, there were no appreciable differences in disease-free or overall survival.
