Abstract

Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for the treatment of thoracic outlet syndrome and chest wall lesions are burgeoning topics on thoracic surgery. Following publication of the Society of Vascular Surgeons expert statement in 2016, the diagnosis and management of thoracic outlet syndrome is favorably evolving. Robot-assisted first rib resection is a novel approach to the surgical management of thoracic outlet syndrome that may have advantages compared with traditional open surgical approaches. Robot-assisted chest wall resection is technically feasible for a variety of chest wall conditions and may also have advantages compared with thoracotomy approaches.
