Key Points
- Robotic assisted resection of masses is the newest approach to dealing with the mediastinum.
- The location of the mass by compartment, and its relationship to the carina, defines a robotic approach.
- Understanding the anatomy surrounding the mass is key to a safe and efficient resection.
- Multiple series, studies and meta-analyses support the safety and feasibility of the robotic method of resection of these masses.
- Recent literature suggests advantages to the robotic approach, but further studies are needed to compare it with both thoracoscopic and open approaches.
