Abstract
The surgical instruments used in robot-assisted thoracic surgery are flexible to enable the surgeon to approach the surgical field from any direction. However even in robot-assisted thoracic surgery subcarinal lymph node dissection requires a precise technique suitable for a small area surrounded by important organs. We present a method of subcarinal node dissection with solo robot-assisted thoracic surgery using a bronchial traction method and a metal basket suction device, the Dobon (Senko Medical Instrument Mfg, Tokyo, Japan).
