Abstract
Nodal staging is paramount for the treatment of lung cancer due to its role in determining the need for adjuvant therapy likewise to establish an adequate prognosis. Considering the increasing adoption of minimally invasive techniques for lung resection, it is important to determine if these methods are as effective as the open technique. Nodal upstaging has been used as a surrogate for the quality of nodal lymphadenectomy. The objective of this study was to compare nodal upstaging by open, video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) and robotic lung resections for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment.
