Zusammenfassung: | The uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic right upper lobectomy (UVATRUL), as a common procedure for thoracic surgeons, is difficult to manipulate and has some inherent challenges. To solve both of problems, we summarized a series of techniques as the three steps method and investigated its feasibility on the patients of right upper lung cancer.
Forty-eight patients with right upper lobe lung cancer who underwent the three steps method UVATRUL in our hospital from January 2020 to May 2022 were selected as the three steps method group. Forty-seven patients who underwent the traditional UVATRUL were selected as the traditional method group. The intraoperative condition and postoperative condition of the two groups were retrospectively analysed. Multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to analyze the relationship between positive results and surgical method.
All patients had successfully completed their surgeries. There was no significant difference between the two groups in respect of intraoperative blood loss, rate of conversion, day one thoracic drainage volume, chest tube indwelling time, incidence of postoperative complications, number of lymph node, and postoperative hospital stay (P > 0.05). Operative time of the three steps method group was significantly shorter than the traditional method group (P |
