Objective To compare the minimally invasive effect of Da Vinci robotic surgery with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS) in the lobectomy. Methods We analyzed 35 patients that underwent Da Vinci robotic surgery and 66 patients that underwent VATS. We collected blood loss, operative time, volume and duration of drainage, the number of resected lymph nodes and lymph node stations and postoperation hospitalization time. And postoperative complications were also included. Results Blood loss, operative time, number of resected lymph node stations, number of resected lymph nodes, volume of drainage, time of drainage, postoperative hospitalization time and postoperative complications(hoarseness and chylothorax) showed no significant statistical difference between two surgeries(P > 0.05). Conclusion Da Vinci robotic surgery is safe and feasible. Although the robotic surgery is slightly superior to VATS in operative time, blood loss, volume and duration of drainage, post-operation hospitalization time and postoperative complications, there is no statistically significant difference.
