I don’t believe that my ribs will be manipulated because I am having robotic/VATS surgery. Thank you anyway.

If you're interested, check out YouTube. There's a video of a lower left lobectomy by a surgeon at Memorial Sloan Kettering. The surgery is compressed into an 18 minute video. It illustrates where the cameras and the robotic tools are placed. ( I've not been a member here long enough mouth to post a link.)
