What Does a Thoracic Surgeon Do?
A thoracic surgeon specialises in operations on organs within the chest cavity, including the lungs, oesophagus, mediastinum, diaphragm, and chest wall. Unlike a consultant cardiothoracic surgeon who focuses primarily on cardiac surgery and heart procedures, thoracic surgeons concentrate on lung surgery, chest wall deformities, and other thoracic conditions affecting the respiratory system.
Mr Scarci’s clinical interests encompass the full spectrum of thoracic surgery, from routine procedures to complex surgical interventions that require advanced keyhole surgery techniques and robotic thoracic surgery approaches.
