Brief Title: Robot-assisted vs VATS for Thymoma
Official Title: Comparison of Short-term and Longterm Outcomes Between Robot-assisted Thoracoscopy and Television-assisted Thoracoscopy Surgery Forthymoma : a Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study
Study ID: NCT06029621
Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to explore the advantages of robot-assisted thymectomy in long-term survival benefits and short-term clinical efficacy compared with video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy based on a multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial.
Detailed Description: Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery ( VATS ) is widely used in thoracic surgery and has gradually replaced traditional thoracotomy in thymoma. As a new type of VATS, the long-term oncological results of robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in thymoma have not been verified. Therefore, we designed a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial to determine whether RATS thymectomy is as effective as VATS thymectomy in terms of short-term and long-term outcomes.
