Thoracic surgery in France
Thoracic surgery in France includes surgery on the lungs (pleura) and chest. Thoracic surgery is engaged in diseases acquired due to various injuries, tumors, inflammations, as well as abnormalities of the thorax. Most thoracic surgeons in France work with the latest techniques, such as video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), esophageal and bronchial stents, Da Vinci robotic surgery, and traditional minimally invasive techniques — laparoscopic and thoracoscopic surgery.
We work with a team of experts specializing in various kinds of surgeries in the thoracic area, but especially in the early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of lung cancer. Choosing the best team of doctors will increase the chances for a speedy recovery, as well as ensure a more comfortable recovery after treatment.
