Anyone with upper left lobe removed by robotic surgery. How many incisions did you have?

@esk123 I had a lower left lobe lobectomy and have 5 small incisions. The largest was under my left breast.
@esk123
Had VATS Upper right removed last year. 4 incisions. Barley see them now.

@esk123 - Hi, I had VATS ULL in 2023. I have 3 or 4 little incisions, not even an inch, and 1 (where they remove the lung from) that is about 3 inches long. They are almost no longer visible.
