Objective To compare the safety,effectiveness and affordability of robotic-assisted thoracic surgery and video-assisted thoracic surgery in the treatment of malignant pulmonary tumors,and provide ref-erences for the management of selection of different surgical strategies for malignant pulmonary tumors in hospitals and medical insurance departments.Methods The medical records homepages and information sys-tem data of patients with malignant pulmonary tumors who underwent major thoracic surgery in this hospital and discharged from January 1 to December 31,2022 were obtained.The patients were divided into the robotic-assistedthoracic surgery group and video-assisted thoracic surgery group according to the surgical methodolo-gies.After performing propensity score matching (PSM),no statistically significant difference was observed in baseline data between the two groups (117 cases in each group).Then the indicators of safety,effectiveness and affordability were compared between the two groups.Results Concerning the safety,the postoperative in-cision infection rate in the robotic-assisted thoracic surgery group was significantly lower than that in the vide-o-assisted thoracic surgery group (P<0.05),and the amount of intraoperative blood loss and postoperative complication rate were not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05).Regarding the effective-ness,the average surgical duration in the robotic-assisted thoracic surgery group was appreciably shorter than that in the video-assisted thoracic surgery group (P<0.05),no patient in the two groups was converted to open thoracotomy,and there was no statistically significant difference in the average length of hospital stay and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05).With regard to the affordability,the aver-age inpatient expenditure per case and average daily inpatient expenditure per case in the robotic-assisted tho-racic surgery group were significantly higher than those in the video-assisted thoracic surgery group (P<0.05),and there were disparities in the cost structure between the two procedures.The medical cost,adminis-tration cost and consumables cost in the robotic-assisted thoracic surgery group were significantly higher than those in the video-assisted thoracic surgery group (P<0.05).The cost of medical technology in the robotic-assisted thoracic surgery group was significantly lower than that in the video-assisted thoracic surgery group (P<0.05).Conclusion Physicians should comprehensively consider the clinical efficacy and cost burden of patients when selecting the robotic-assisted thoracic surgery or the video-assisted thoracic surgery,and the monitoring and evaluation of the utilization of clinical robotic-assisted thoracic surgery should be strength-ened.
