Thoracotomy Hospitals in India

maswali yanayoulizwa mara kwa mara

Thoracotomy is a surgical procedure where the cardiothoracic surgeon makes an incision in the patient's chest wall and gets access to the lungs, heart, or other thoracic organs for diagnosis or treatment.

The duration varies depending on the procedure, typically 2 to 6 hours.

While rare, risks may include infection, bleeding, pneumonia, and chronic pain.

Initial hospital stay is usually 5-7 days. Full recovery can take 6-8 weeks, with a gradual return to normal activities.

While some post-operative pain is expected, our expert pain management team ensures you're comfortable throughout your recovery using advanced techniques.

Most patients can resume light activities within 4-6 weeks, with full recovery often taking 2-3 months. Your surgeon will provide personalised guidance.

In some cases, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) or robotic-assisted approaches can be alternatives to open thoracotomy. Our surgeons at CARE Hospitals will discuss the best option for your condition.

Thoracotomy is used for various conditions, including lung cancer, oesophagal disorders, chest trauma, and certain cardiac procedures.

Most insurance plans cover medically necessary thoracotomy procedures. Our team at CARE Hospital will help you verify your coverage & understand the benefits of the plan.
