Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery

Thoracic surgery is a specialized field of surgery that focuses on treating conditions and diseases affecting the organs and structures within the chest cavity. These can include lung cancer, esophageal cancer, mediastinal tumors, chest wall deformities, and other thoracic conditions. One of the key aspects of thoracic surgery at KingJims Healthcare Limited is our focus on minimally invasive techniques. Minimally invasive surgery, such as thoracoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures, uses small incisions and specialized tools to access and operate on the chest cavity. This approach results in less pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times for patients compared to traditional open surgery.
