After propensity matching, we had 2 well-matched cohorts of 102 patients in the RVATS group and 204 in the VATS group. Our data showed no significant difference in 90-day mortality, 30-day hospital readmission rate, or median number of lymph nodes between the RVATS and VATS groups. There was also no significant difference in postoperative morbidity except for pleural effusion. RVATS had a significantly greater median number of lymph node stations harvested and longer operative time. Although both groups achieved R0 resections in all patients, RVATS showed a greater negative tumor margin distance compared with VATS. There was no significant difference in disease-free survival or overall survival between the 2 groups at 3 years.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
