In most cases, doctors resort to the procedure for lung cancer.
\nSpecialists of foreign clinics perform resection using video-assisted thoracoscopic VATS method. They perform manipulations through 2-5 incisions of 2.5 cm. After such a procedure, the patient recovers faster than after a traditional open operation.
\nWe have identified the 3 most popular directions for surgery to remove a lung for cancer among residents of the CIS.
\n\n\n\nIn German clinics, the accuracy of diagnosis is 100%. Thanks to this, German doctors correctly determine the scope of the intervention and preserve the healthy tissues of the organ as much as possible.
\n\n\n\nLung resection in Turkey is qualified surgeons and 85% of operations without complications at an affordable price. The cost of lung cancer surgery is lower here than in Israel and Germany.
\n\n\n\nIn Israeli clinics, patients are operated on by experienced and qualified doctors. They are trained and trained in leading medical centers in the US and Europe. Thanks to this, Israeli specialists are improving the methods of conducting operations.
\nWhen choosing a hospital for the operation, they are guided by:
\n\nAtypical (marginal) lung resection
\n\nExcision of the affected lung tissue without taking into account the localization of blood vessels and the structure of the bronchi.
\n\nAdvantages: allows you to preserve the healthy part of the organ as much as possible.
\n\nDisadvantages: The procedure can cause severe bleeding and organ dysfunction.
\n\nTypical lung resection
\n\nExcision of the affected part of the organ, taking into account the anatomical features of the lungs. Types of procedure:
\n\nAdvantages: the procedure is accompanied by fewer side effects than marginal resection.
\n\nDisadvantages: during an atypical resection, the doctor removes more healthy tissue than during a marginal one.
\nThe surgeon performs manipulations through an incision up to 20 cm.
\n\nAdvantages: The operation provides the doctor with good visibility.
\n\nDisadvantages: The procedure leaves a large scar. Hospitalization lasts up to 2 weeks.
\n\nVideo-assisted thoracoscopic lung resection ( VATS )
\n\nThe surgeon operates through 3-5 incisions up to 2.5 cm. Through one incision, he inserts a tube with a camera that transmits an image of the lungs to the monitor. Through the rest of the incisions, the doctor performs manipulations with the help of special tools.
\n\nBenefits: VATS leaves small scars. Rehabilitation is 2-3 times faster than after open intervention.
\n\nDisadvantages: The procedure provides the doctor with less visibility than traditional open surgery.
\nThe price of surgery for lung cancer depends on the amount of intervention and the method of its implementation.
\n\nYes, I have. They accompany foreign patients at all stages of diagnosis and treatment, help with the preparation and translation of documents.
\nLeave a request on the Bookimed website, and the relevant coordinating doctor will contact you. He will select several hospitals that will meet your wishes in terms of quality and price. Together with the coordinating doctor, you will choose the best of the proposed clinics.
\n\nTo find out how much lung cancer surgery costs for you, please send us your medical records. The medical coordinator will send them to the selected hospital and request a treatment program.
\n\nWe will supervise you from the moment you apply until you return home.
\n\nDay 1 - Arrival
\nDay 2 - Pre-Operation
\nDay 3 - Surgery
\nDay 4 - Post-Operation
\nDay 5 - Hospital Stay
\nWeek 1-2 - Rehabilitation
\nWeek 3-6 - Rehabilitation
\nPlease note, recovery times and procedures may vary depending on individual health conditions and the specifics of the surgery.
