Thoracoscopic Lung Surgery

Thoracoscopic Lung Surgery is a minimally invasive surgical technique within the field of respiratory tract surgery that involves the resection or treatment of lung tissue through small thoracic incisions using a video-guided thoracoscope, thereby distinguishing it from open thoracotomy by enabling enhanced postoperative recovery and reduced surgical trauma.
