Abstrakt: | Objective: The initial description of robotic tracheobronchoplasty for the treatment of tracheobronchomalacia demonstrated feasibility, safety, and short-term symptomatic and functional improvement. The purpose of the current study was to demonstrate intermediate outcomes in postoperative pulmonary function and quality of life after robotic tracheobronchoplasty. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed prospectively collected clinical data from 42 patients who underwent robotic tracheobronchoplasty from May 2016 to December 2017. The Institutional Review Board or equivalent ethics committee of the Northwell Health approved the study protocol and publication of data. Patient written consent for the publication of the study data was waived by the Institutional Review Board. Results: A total of 42 patients underwent robotic tracheobronchoplasty during the study period. Median total follow-up is 40 months. There was 1 death since surgery from an unrelated disease. Significant decreases in St George's Respiratory Questionnaire total score (preoperative mean: 64.01, postoperative mean: 38.91, P = .002), St George's Respiratory Questionnaire symptom score (preoperative median: 82.6, postoperative median: 43.99, P < .001), and St George's Respiratory Questionnaire impact score (preoperative median: 55.78, postoperative median: 25.95, P < .001) were apparent at a median follow-up of 13 months. Comparison of preoperative and postoperative pulmonary function tests revealed a significant increase in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (preoperative median: 74% vs postoperative median: 82%, P = .001), forced vital capacity (preoperative median: 68.5% vs postoperative median: 80.63%, P < .001), and peak expiratory flow (preoperative median: 61.5% vs postoperative median: 75%, P = .02) measured at a median follow-up of 29 months. Conclusions: Robotic tracheobronchoplasty is associated with low intermediate-term mortality. Robotic tracheobronchoplasty results in significant improvement in quality of life and postoperative pulmonary function. Longer-term follow-up is necessary to continue to elucidate the effect of robotic tracheobronchoplasty on halting pathologic progression of tracheobronchomalacia and to determine the long-term impact of tracheobronchoplasty on symptomatic and functional improvement.
