Thoracic surgery is a type of surgery that focuses on the organs and structures within the chest cavity, including the lungs, heart, esophagus, and other associated structures. It is a highly specialized field of surgery that requires extensive training and experience. Thoracic surgeons use a variety of techniques to diagnose and treat conditions, including minimally invasive procedures, open surgery, and robotic-assisted surgery. Common thoracic surgeries include lung resection, lobectomy, pneumonectomy, and esophagectomy. Thoracic surgery is often used to treat conditions such as lung cancer, emphysema, and chest trauma.
Some of the companies in the thoracic surgery market include Medtronic, Stryker, Johnson & Johnson, Smith & Nephew, and Zimmer Biomet. Show Less Read more
