Video-Assisted Surgery in Oncology

Cancer is a leading cause of death and main contributor for disease burden globally. To treat the majority of cancer types, surgery is the only curable strategy for patients at an earlier stage; it also can be used for palliative care when patients are at a later stage. Video-assisted surgery (VAS) has been introduced for decades, as a safe and effective method to treat diseases, including cancer. Compared to open surgery, the traditional type of surgery, VAS allows resection to be minimally invasive, contributing to better intra- and post-operative patient outcomes, especially for faster recovery. With the benefits, a higher utilization of healthcare services to the public can be achieved, including a shorter hospitalization for the patients.
