Our Lung cancer surgery Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Lung cancer surgery, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Lobectomy

Lobectomy is a surgical procedure that removes one lobe of the lung to treat lung cancer or other lung diseases.

Pros: Lobectomy is less invasive than pneumonectomy and preserves more lung function. It has a high success rate of around 85% for early-stage lung cancer.

Cons: It may not be suitable for patients with widespread lung damage or tumors in multiple lobes. Recovery can be longer compared to wedge resection.

Effectiveness: 85%

Duration: 2-4 hours

Recovery: 4-6 weeks

Best for: Early-stage lung cancer, localized tumors, and non-small cell lung cancer in patients.

Prices: Cost of Lobectomy in Greece from $7,000

Wedge Resection

A surgical procedure that removes a small, wedge-shaped part of the lung containing a tumor or abnormal tissue.

Pros: Less invasive than lobectomy or pneumonectomy, preserving more lung function. Typically results in a shorter hospital stay, with only 1-3 days required.

Cons: Higher recurrence rates compared to lobectomy, with approximately 10% more cases. Not suitable for larger tumors or those near major blood vessels.

Effectiveness: 95% success rate in removing small, localized tumors.

Duration: 1-2 hours

Recovery: 1-2 weeks

Best for: Small, early-stage lung tumors, particularly in patients with limited lung function.

Prices: Cost of Wedge Resection in Greece from $8,500

Pneumonectomy

Pneumonectomy involves the surgical removal of an entire lung, primarily to treat lung cancer or severe lung disease.

Pros: Offers a complete removal of cancerous tissue, reducing recurrence risk. Effective for large tumors that can't be excised by other methods.

Cons: Higher risk of complications and longer recovery time compared to lobectomy or wedge resection. Decreased lung function post-surgery.

Effectiveness: Success rate is around 70-80% in removing cancerous tissue.

Duration: The procedure takes approximately 4-6 hours.

Recovery: Recovery usually spans 1-2 months.

Best for: Large or centrally located tumors. Suitable for patients with localized lung cancer.

Prices: Cost of Pneumonectomy in Greece from $1,200

Lung segmentectomy

A pulmonary surgery that involves removing a specific segment of the lung affected by disease, often used to treat localized lung cancer.

Pros: Preserves more lung function compared to lobectomy. Less invasive than pneumonectomy, with fewer complications. Allows for targeted tumor excision, minimizing healthy tissue removal.

Cons: May not be suitable for large or multiple tumors. Slightly higher recurrence risk compared to lobectomy at 10%.

Effectiveness: Success rate is approximately 85-90% for early-stage lung cancer.

Duration: 2-3 hours

Recovery: 2-4 weeks

Best for: Patients with small, localized tumors, especially in early-stage lung cancer.

Prices: Cost of Lung segmentectomy in Greece from $9,000
