Comparison of Biportal Versus Multiportal Robotic Approaches for Pulmonary Resection in NSCLC

Clinical Trial in Patients With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Undergoing Biportal Versus Multiportal Robotic Thoracic Surgery: Comparison of Two Innovative Techniques

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 14 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study compares two established robotic surgical approaches for removing lung tumors in adults with non-small cell lung cancer: biportal robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (biRATS) and multiportal robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (multiRATS). Participants are assigned at random to one of the two approaches. The study will compare surgical safety, recovery after surgery, pain, length of hospital stay, quality of life, and other clinical outcomes during 12 months of follow-up.
