Thoracic Surgery is responsible for the diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases affecting the lungs, pleura, mediastinum, chest wall, and trachea. It excludes the heart, which falls under cardiovascular surgery, but works closely with pulmonology and thoracic oncology.

• Lung cancer and pulmonary metastases
• Spontaneous or secondary pneumothorax
• Mediastinal tumors and bronchogenic cysts
• Pleural infections (empyema, chronic effusion)
• Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
• Tracheal disease and tracheal stenosis
• Chest wall deformities (pectus excavatum, carinatum)
• Thoracic trauma (rib fractures, pulmonary contusion)

In the initial consultation, the thoracic surgeon will review imaging studies (CT scan, bronchoscopy, etc.), respiratory symptoms, and the patient’s general condition. If surgery is needed, the objectives, steps, and postoperative process will be clearly explained.

Minimally invasive thoracic surgery (VATS and robotic). Multidisciplinary unit for lung cancer and mediastinal surgery. Fast-track thoracic surgery diagnosis and treatment programs. Sympathectomy for hyperhidrosis and functional surgeries. Postoperative follow-up with respiratory physiotherapy and pain control.

• Pre-surgical consultation with 3D planning for aesthetic procedures
• Photographic study and body measurements
• Psychological evaluation (when indicated)
• Facial CT and computer-guided bone reconstruction
• Day hospital for outpatient surgeries
• Postoperative follow-up with wound care, drains, and aesthetic physiotherapy
