Guest: Benjamin Lee, M.D. Guest: Jeffrey Port, M.D. Guest: Jonathan Villena-Vargas, M.D. Surgeons at NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine are advancing the use of single-port robotics for complex thoracic surgery. While multiport robotic surgery requires 4-5 incisions around the ribs, the single-port platform uses one incision through the diaphragm, improving surgery success and reducing recovery time. By being an early adopter, the center at NewYork-Presbyterian and
