Procedures We Offer

Here are some of the procedures we offer at SPARSH Hospital:

Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery (MITS)

Our team of experienced thoracic surgeons in Bangalore are trained in advanced techniques like Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery (MITS). It is the process of making smaller incisions in the chest without extending the ribs. It is also called video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS. This modern process is used in a number of thoracic diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Besides VATS, our thoracic surgeons also use Robotic-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (RATS) for thoracic surgeries.

These modern thoracic approaches have many benefits, such as

  • Less pain and faster recovery
  • Smaller scars
  • Lower risk of complications
  • Shorter hospital stays
  • Quicker return to normal life

Lung Cancer Surgery

Early and effective surgical treatment of lung cancer can be life-saving. Our Department of Thoracic Surgery offers everything, from diagnostic biopsies to complex resections. Our thoracic surgeons in Bangalore work closely with oncologists, radiologists, and pulmonologists to create a treatment plan that suits your lifestyle and needs. With recent advances like robotic surgery for lung cancer, patients can recover quickly.

The most common diseases that require thoracic surgeries include coronary artery disease, valve problems, lung cancer, chest trauma, or heart/lung transplantation.

How is lung cancer treated through thoracic surgery?

At SPARSH Hospital, we use Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery, commonly called VATS, to remove the affected part of the lung (lobectomy, segmentectomy, or pneumonectomy). This minimally invasive procedure is safer and quicker than traditional lung cancer surgeries.

What is minimally invasive thoracic surgery, and is it available at SPARSH?

Minimally invasive thoracic surgeries are surgical procedures performed on the thorax or chest using smaller incisions rather than larger cuts.
