About this trial
This study aims to identify physiopathologic mechanisms related to surgical approaches during lobectomies for non-small cell lung cancer which can explain the better quality of life and the decrease of of post-operative complications in minimally invasive techniques (video-assisted thoracic surgery and robotic-assisted thoracic surgery) compared to conventional thoracotomy.
