About
Matthieu Sarsam is a thoracic surgeon whose research has significantly advanced the field of minimally invasive lung surgery, with a particular focus on robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) and its clinical, economic, and educational dimensions. His most cited work, a 2022 comparative study of robotic versus video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), has garnered 31 citations and provides important long-term survival data informing surgical decision-making. Sarsam has made notable contributions to understanding the affordability of minimally invasive lung resection programs, demonstrating their economic viability in a prospective study with 27 citations. Beyond clinical outcomes, he has pioneered simulation-based crisis training in robotic thoracic surgery to enhance patient safety, reflecting a commitment to surgical education. His work also spans technical innovations, including robot-assisted bronchoplasty using barbed sutures, bronchoscopic dye marking for nodule localization, and comparative analyses of surgical approaches for lobectomy. Collectively, his portfolio, totaling over 130 citations, establishes Sarsam as an influential voice in optimizing both the safety and efficacy of robotic thoracic surgery for lung cancer patients.
