[Video-assisted Double-lumen Tubes in Robot-assisted Oesophageal Surgery].

Robot-assisted esophagectomies are still considered high-risk procedures requiring complex surgical and anesthesiological planning and coordination. The operative space during the thoracic operative part is created by one-lung ventilation. Due to special patient positioning and intraoperative repositioning maneuvers, however, access to patient airway or double-lumen tube manipulation, if necessary, is only possible to a certain extent.
