Da Vinci robotic assisted surgery has brought a completely new solution to the drawbacks of routine thoracoscopic surgery.At present,some large clinical centers have proved that robotic surgery gets more advantages than conventional thoracoscopic surgery in lymph node dissection,chest surgery with high difficulty and high risk,which reduces the difficulty of the operation,while allowing surgeons to feel more comfortable.Da Vinci robot technology used in almost all of the thoracic surgery (except lung transplantation),widely used in the esophageal surgery,lung surgery,mediastinum surgery,but as a new surgical technique,its safety and efficacy remains to be further verified,comparisons of the perioperative outcome and long-term prognosis are the research hotspot.
