This study evaluated the SHURUI single-port (SP) robotic system for uniportal robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) in lung cancer patients.
June 5, 2025
This article discusses a promising diagnostic approach aimed at improving patient selection for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapies, particularly in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The current reliance on PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC) as a biomarker has limited sensitivity and specificity.

This video demonstrates the technical challenges of bilateral lung transplantation after cut and sew MAZE, detailing safe methods for pulmonary vein anastomosis using full cardiopulmonary bypass.
May 30, 2025
This video illustrates the resection of an azygous lobe and discusses whether it should be classified as a lobectomy or segmentectomy.
May 29, 2025
This study analyzed pregnancy outcomes in female lung transplant (LuT) recipients, focusing on modifiable factors that could improve outcomes. Using data from the Transplant Pregnancy Registry International (TPRI), the study included 53 women who reported 72 pregnancies after LuT between 1991 and 2021.

This video highlights the surgical steps involved in a successful uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery segment 7 segmentectomy in a 67-year-old male with rectosigmoid adenocarcinoma.
May 15, 2025
This video demonstrates how practical simulation on a 3D lung model can be a useful training tool for thoracic surgery residents to understand and perform the steps of a pulmonary lobectomy.
May 7, 2025
This video demonstrates an approach for sentinel lymph node mapping in sublobar anatomic resections.
May 7, 2025
This retrospective analysis compared three-port and four-port robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)(n=121, 2020–2021). Demographics, tumor characteristics, complications, and lymph node yields were similar between groups.
