BACKGROUND: The morbidity and mortality of lung cancer have always ranked first among malignant tumors (MTs). Previous studies have shown that neoadjuvant chemotherapy can improve the 5-year survival rate of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the benefit is limited. Studies have proven that neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy has unique advantages in prolonging patient survival, reducing distant recurrence, and inducing antitumor immunity. However, its impact remains to be more comprehensively investigated...

Robotic-assisted surgery enables precise manipulations with magnified vision, stereoscopic vision, and forceps with multi-joint functions. It requires unique procedures such as position setting, port placement, roll-in, and docking, which lead to prolonged operation and anesthesia time. Five conditions described below were established at our institution to reduce the time to the initiation of console: (1) changing the patients' position from the flat lithotomy position to the spread legs position; (2) attaching a Hasson cone to hold the umbilical cannula stable; (3) changing the cannula's obturator (inner tube) from blunt to bladeless; (4) fixing the team, and (5) conducting regular docking training...

Sciatic notch lipomas are rare benign fatty tumors that can cause significant morbidity due to compression of the sciatic nerve. Surgical excision is the gold standard treatment, but traditional open techniques are associated with significant risks and prolonged recovery times. Robotic surgery provides opportunity to improve on traditional laparoscopic techniques by allowing better visualization of and access to regions of complex anatomy, including the pelvis. The potential benefits of robotic resection include reduced blood loss, minimized tissue trauma, and shorter hospital stays...
