Use of Robotic-Like Articulated Instruments in Medical Thoracoscopy: A Case Series

These cases demonstrate that articulated wristed instruments can potentially enhance MT's precision and reach in complex pleural spaces. Their use broadens therapeutic options for patients unsuitable for surgery and supports MT as a minimally invasive, effective intervention. Continued innovation and research are essential to validate benefits on clinical outcomes and healthcare utilization, ensuring MT remains a vital tool in managing pleural diseases.
