Analysis compares SVATS and LVATS outcomes in anterior mediastinal conditions, indicating SVATS could enhance quality of life.
This study shows that SVATS significantly affected VAS. However, no süperiority was observed between SVATS and LVATS regarding operation time, length of hospital stay, and perioperative complications. Therefore, SVATS may be preferred over LVATS in anterior mediastinal lesions and may improve patients' quality of life with less pain.
