Bibliometric analysis highlights advances in surgical techniques and precision medicine for chronic pain prevention post-thoracoscopic surgery.
Research on postoperative pain after thoracoscopic surgery has evolved from clinical observation to multimodal analgesia, making advancements toward precision medicine and long-term outcomes. Current research hotspots include optimizing analgesic strategies, understanding pain mechanisms, refining surgical techniques, and promoting rapid recovery. Promising areas include regional analgesia techniques, liposomal bupivacaine, chronic pain prevention, opioid-sparing strategies, and spontaneous ventilation anesthesia.
