Residential Distance to the Cancer Center and Outcomes after Robotic-Assisted Pulmonary Lobectomy

Residential Distance to the Cancer Center and Outcomes after Robotic-Assisted Pulmonary Lobectomy

Outcomes of lung cancer patients traveling greater distances for surgical oncology care are not well-described. We investigated the effects of increased travel burden after robotic-assisted pulmonary lobectomy (RAPL) for lung cancer. Clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes of 711 consecutive...

Zusammenfassung:Outcomes of lung cancer patients traveling greater distances for surgical oncology care are not well-described. We investigated the effects of increased travel burden after robotic-assisted pulmonary lobectomy (RAPL) for lung cancer. Clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes of 711 consecutive patients who underwent RAPL from September 2010 to March 2022 were compared, stratified by primary residential ZIP code
