Drawing upon the pivotal work of pioneers such as Dr&#46; Cooper&#44; Dr&#46; James&#44; D&#46; Hardy&#44; and the Toronto Lung Transplant Group&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> the journey of lung transplantation has been waymarked by notable breakthroughs&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Lung transplantation often requires the use of highly invasive incisions&#44; including the clamshell incision &#40;CS&#41;&#44; sternotomy&#44; and anterior&#47;posterolateral thoracotomy&#46; These approaches are often associated with unfavourable outcomes such as increased inflammation&#44; heightened postoperative pain&#44; and issues such as phrenic nerve paresis causing breathing problems&#46; Wound healing can be compromised&#44; leading to wound dehiscence and vulnerability to infections&#44; even osteomyelitis&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> These outcomes can significantly affect the recovery process and impact negatively on patients&#8217; overall quality of life&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Lung transplantation has transitioned from extensive bilateral thoracotomy with sternal division to less invasive approaches&#44; such as small bilateral thoracotomies without sternal division&#46; Researchers have also explored endoscopic methods&#44; which offer the potential for less invasive techniques&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> However&#44; these approaches have not yet been widely adopted&#44; and only a few minimally invasive surgical options for lung transplantation have gained traction&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the field of thoracic surgery&#44; the emergence of minimally invasive techniques such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery &#40;VATS&#41; and robot-assisted thoracic surgery &#40;RATS&#41; has brought about a notable shift in surgical practices&#44; and these techniques have become the standard for elective surgical procedures&#46; Our substantial experience in robotic surgery&#44; with more than 350 robotic procedures conducted since 2018&#44; alongside our extensive proficiency in lung transplantation with over 1500 procedures performed since the programme&#39;s inception&#44; highlights this transformation&#44; particularly in complex surgeries&#46; Positive outcomes have strengthened our confidence and paved the way for an ambitious move&#58; the implementation of a programme for robotic lung transplantation&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our programme began with several months of detailed research&#44; careful planning&#44; and the creation of a surgical plan&#46; The steps from idea to action were carefully thought out and followed a well-designed path&#46; One of our major challenges was the extraction of the native lung and the introduction of the graft without resorting to traditional thoracotomies&#46; It was at this juncture that we collectively determined to harness the subxiphoid approach&#44; well-documented in thoracic surgeries&#44; and seamlessly integrate it into our routine clinical practice&#46;</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Initially&#44; we conducted practice simulations in a controlled environment using simulation materials&#46; Once we had refined our technique&#44; we proceeded to an experimental phase&#46; Collaborating with a specialized institution focused on training for minimally invasive surgery &#40;Minimally Invasive Surgery Centre Jes&#250;s Us&#243;n&#41;&#44; we performed two successful left single lung transplant procedures in sheep&#46; This accomplishment validated the precision of our pre-planning and methodological approach&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">After conducting the essential animal experiments&#44; we transitioned into a critical phase of meticulous planning and preparation&#46; This involved the development of comprehensive surgical protocols that outlined the procedure in detail&#46; These protocols served as a roadmap for our surgical team&#44; ensuring a systematic and precise approach to each aspect of the robotic lung transplantation&#46;</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Concurrently&#44; we embarked on an extensive educational training within our medical staff&#46; Our anaesthesia and nursing teams were integral to the success of the procedure&#44; and we conducted rigorous training sessions and interactive workshops to acquaint them with the technical nuances&#46; This knowledge-sharing phase played a crucial role in ensuring a smooth and effective process&#44; ultimately leading to favourable outcomes&#46;</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The surgery began with patient positioning under general anaesthesia and a double-lumen endotracheal tube&#46; Using the robotic platform&#44; four ports were placed&#44; along with a subxiphoid approach&#46; This enabled the meticulous dissection of the pulmonary hilum&#44; transection of the pulmonary artery and vein with robotic staplers&#44; and division of the main bronchus&#44; ultimately leading to a controlled pneumonectomy&#46; The recipient&#39;s lung was removed through an 8<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm subxiphoid incision&#44; and the graft was inserted through the same incision&#46;</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Following the pneumonectomy&#44; established techniques were used for bronchial&#44; arterial&#44; and pulmonary vein anastomoses&#46; Bronchial anastomosis employed an end-to-end suture technique&#46; The pulmonary artery was clamped using an endoscopic vascular clamp&#44; followed by a half-continuous anastomosis&#46; Subsequently&#44; clamping of the left atrium and anastomosis of the recipient&#39;s left atrium to the donor&#39;s atrial cuff was performed using the same suture technique&#46; Haemostasis was achieved after reperfusion and ventilation&#46; Two chest tubes were placed for drainage&#44; and importantly&#44; no extra haemodynamic support&#44; such as ECMO or CPB&#44; was needed during the surgery&#46;</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The first case was a 65-year-old male recipient &#40;height 180<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm&#44; weight 86<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>kg&#41; with severe restrictive ventilatory disorder due to end-stage usual interstitial pneumonia and significantly compromised functioning and daily life&#46; After 21 days on the transplant waiting list&#44; a compatible donor lung became available&#46; A 72-year-old non-smoking female donor&#44; with a body weight of 44<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>kg&#44; height of 165<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm&#44; and PaFi of 492<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mmHg&#44; was selected&#46; The donor lung underwent thorough assessment and was prepared for the transplant to the recipient&#46; Following surgery&#44; the patient experienced minimal postoperative pain&#44; which significantly facilitated a swift recovery during the hospitalization phase&#46;</p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the second case&#44; a 71-year-old male &#40;height 164<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm&#44; weight 65<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>kg&#41; with pulmonary fibrosis and reliance on home oxygen therapy received a left single lung transplant&#46; He had severely restrictive respiratory patterns and decreased diffusion capacity&#46; A 22-year-old non-smoking male donor was deemed suitable&#44; and the transplantation procedure was performed&#46; Mimicking the approach in first case&#44; positive outcomes were achieved without extracorporeal support&#46; Following surgery&#44; as in the first patient&#44; the postoperative phase for this case was characterized by minimal pain&#46; The wound healing process was notably successful&#44; necessitating only regular analgesia&#44; with no opioids&#46; This pain management approach enabled effective early-phase physiotherapy&#44; contributing to the patient&#39;s postoperative progress&#46;</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Lung transplantation remains the primary viable option for patients with advanced pulmonary failure&#46; Nevertheless&#44; traditional lung transplant methods generate significant challenges and complications&#44; in both the immediate and long term&#46; The integration of robotic technology into thoracic surgery has shown promise&#44; offering improved precision and effective management of complex procedures&#46; Patients who undergo robotic lung transplantation could experience less postoperative pain&#44; along with well-healing incisions&#46; This not only contributes to their overall comfort but also facilitates greater adherence to postoperative physiotherapy&#44; potentially reducing complications directly associated with surgery&#46; Successful instances of robot-assisted lung transplantation underscore the potential for promoting less invasive techniques in this field&#46;
