An observational study in Lung Cancer, sponsored by Scientific Institute San Raffaele. Recruiting at 2 sites in Italy. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-11-27.
Sponsored by Scientific Institute San Raffaele · Observational
The study is a retrospective observational study. The study is designed to be multicentric and it will analyze medical records from selected patients that underwent major lung resection using DaVinci surgical platform performed in the participating centers.
There are no risks for the patients, as this is a retrospective data collection.
The investigators will recruit all patients who underwent major lung resection (segmentectomy, lobectomy, bilobectomy, or pneumonectomy using a robotic system) from May 2015 to December 2022.
Patients are divided into two groups: older than 80 years (case- very elderly patients) and younger than 80 years (control- elderly).
the aim: Minimally invasive techniques such as robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) can potentially reduce surgical trauma and therefore prove particularly beneficial for elderly patients.
5,422 studies on the registry are indexed under Lung Neoplasms; 1,346 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 386 is above the median of 200 across 1,434 observational studies indexed under Lung Neoplasms.

the study will focus on the population of subjects undergoing lung resection with the DaVinci surgical platform from May 2015 to December 2022.
The anatomical resections considered will be segmentectomy, lobectomy, bilobectomy or pneumonectomy using robotic system.

The perioperative complications
the investigators will measure the perioperative complications of robotic lung resection in patients with 80 or more than 80 years (very elderly patients) compared to those with less than 80 years. Complications will be categorized according to the Clavien-Dindo scale.
Time frame: from the surgery at 30-90 days after
spirometry tests
the investigators will measure the pre-operative respiratory function (Forced expiratory volume (FEV) , forced vital capacity (FVC)), in the two groups .
Time frame: from hospitalizzation to the discharge date at maximum one week
Postoperative hospital stay
the investigators will measure the post-operative hospital stay in days in the two groups.
Time frame: from hospitalizzation to the discharge date at maximum one week
Started Sep 2024 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Sep 2025, 12 months after the start.
