No results posted yet for this study

Summary

For the treatment of stage I-II NSCLC, two mini-invasive techniques are mostly utilized: uni-portal and three-portal VATS. In the uniportal approach, the injury on a single intercostal space could determine a lower level of pain than the three-portal approach, allowing a better postoperative course. Few studies in Literature compare these techniques, and most of them are retrospective.

The main purpose of this randomized study is to compare uni-portal VATS with three-portal VATS, in terms of postoperative pain.

Secondary objectives of the study are valutations of:

* respiratory and functional capacity between the two groups
* operative time
* number of resected lymphnodes
* intra and postoperative complications, such as conversions to open surgery, amount of bleeding, prolonged air leaks, surgical site infections, pulmonary complications.
