WHAT IS VIDEO-ASSISTED UNIPORTAL SURGERY?

UMICS surgeons are pioneers in the endoscopic technique that has revolutionized thoracic surgery - Single Port technique or SiVATS (Single Incision Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery).

Description of the procedure

This oncological surgery is performed through an incision of just 3 cm where it is possible to reach any part of the lung and remove the lymph nodes needed to treat the disease with the help of specific minimally invasive surgery instruments and high-definition and 3D imaging systems, when available. The surgery lasts approximately two hours, is performed close to the costal arches and provides a post-operative period with a significant reduction in pain, faster recovery and excellent aesthetic results.
