Marco Scarci is a renowned thoracic surgeon based in London, specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of thoracic conditions. With a focus on minimally invasive techniques such as Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS), Marco Scarci provides cutting-edge, personalized care for patients with lung conditions, chest wall abnormalities, and other thoracic issues. Below are some of the key conditions treated at his clinic.
A collapsed lung is often repaired using keyhole surgery (thoracoscopy), where small incisions are made to insert a tiny camera (endoscope) and surgical instruments. Hospital stay after a thoracoscopy is generally 1–4 days, or until any chest drain tubes have been removed.
Facial blushing, also known as erythrophobia (fear of blushing), is a condition where a person experiences excessive and uncontrollable blushing in social or performance situations. If you suspect you may have erythrophobia, it is advisable to consult with a health professional for guidance.
Lung cancer surgery and surgical removal of lung tumours are usually reserved for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Nevertheless, there are some exceptions to this rule. You will be looked after by our dedicated multidisciplinary team of distinguished healthcare professionals: thoracic surgeons, chest physicians, medical and radiation oncologists, and clinical nurse specialists.
The most common cause of a fractured rib is a trauma to the chest. Occasionally, especially in patients with osteoporosis or cancer, rib fractures can occur on coughing.
Rib fractures are usually very painful and can occasionally pierce the lung. This is a serious condition that requires immediate medical attention.
Excessive sweating, particularly of the hands, can be successfully treated using keyhole surgery to eliminate a tiny part of the sympathetic nerve pathway in the chest. It is more common in the armpits, palms, and soles of the feet. In some cases, hyperhidrosis may affect the entire body, which is known as generalised hyperhidrosis.
Mr. Marco Scarci is a highly respected consultant thoracic surgeon throughout the United Kingdom. Based in London, he is renowned for his expertise in keyhole surgery and lung surgery, particularly in the surgical treatment of lung cancer, pneumothorax (collapsed lung), and pleural effusion. He also specialises in chest pain, rib fractures, slipping rib syndrome, chest wall deformities such as pectus excavatum and pectus carinatum, emphysema (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).

So you think: should I go private?
You might have had a routine scan where something was found by accident, or you have been suffering from medical problems for a while, or perhaps something just came out of the blue. Whatever your circumstances are, you are most likely worried now. You sought help from your trusted GP and might have already seen that lovely doctor at your local NHS trust. You were expecting to be referred to an outpatient clinic for further investigations, but then everything stopped; you were told you needed some tests, yet nobody called you.
To make private care more accessible, especially for self-pay patients, we offer flexible and affordable finance options with transparent pricing and support every step of the way.
