Robot or open? new study checks which prostate surgery is easier on the lungs

This study looks at how two types of prostate cancer surgery affect breathing. Sixty men will be randomly assigned to either robot-assisted or open surgery. The main goal is to measure changes in peak expiratory flow (how fast you can blow air out) right after surgery and again at 24 hours. The results will help doctors understand which approach may be gentler on the lungs.
