Medanta Institute of Chest Surgery and Chest-Onco Surgery is a specialized centre dedicated to the comprehensive management of all diseases and disorders of the chest (thoracic cavity), including thoracic cancers. Through a multidisciplinary and multimodal approach, we address the entire spectrum of patient care—from prevention and early intervention to advanced medical, interventional, and surgical treatments. Our team comprises dedicated specialists with expertise in diseases of the lungs, trachea and bronchi, pleura, mediastinum, oesophagus, chest wall, and diaphragm, supported by nurses specially trained in thoracic care. We utilize advanced diagnostic technologies to accurately assess the stage and complexity of each condition, enabling us to develop personalized treatment and recovery plans for every patient. Our chest surgeons, thoracic oncology surgeons, and lung transplant experts work collaboratively with specialists across disciplines to deliver precise, evidence-based care. The institute is at the forefront of minimally invasive thoracic surgery, offering advanced procedures including Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) and robotic-assisted chest surgery, ensuring better outcomes, faster recovery, and enhanced patient comfort.
Largest team of surgeons specialising in minimally invasive techniques such as Video-assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) and Robot-assisted Thoracic Surgery (RATS) with exceptional success rate, low mortality, morbidity, and complications
State-of-the-art diagnostic facility for cancer screening. Fully modular state-of-the-art operating rooms with world-class facility dedicated to thoracic surgery. Use of advanced surgical robots for high precision, reduced side effects and faster recovery.
End-to-end comprehensive care, including disease prevention, reversal, clinical treatment (interventional and surgical) for all stages of thoracic disease, including cancers. Complete post-surgery support including rehabilitation and nutrition.
Dedicated specialists to treat cancers and some of the most complex and rare diseases of the chest. Our clinicians are supported by a team of nurses specially trained in thoracic disease management
Specialised team to handle all thoracic surgical emergencies, including chest trauma. Expertise in the management of tracheobronchial injury and severe chest wall injuries. Excellent critical care facility with the provision of ECMO.
Chest trauma encompasses injuries to the chest wall, lungs, and other thoracic structures. Blunt or penetrating trauma can lead to life-threatening conditions, requiring immediate medical attention and, in some cases, surgical intervention.
Bronchiectasis is a chronic lung condition characterized by irreversible dilation of the bronchi, leading to recurrent respiratory infections and coughing. Treatment involves managing symptoms and addressing underlying causes, often requiring a multidisciplinary approach.
A chronic autoimmune, neuromuscular condition known as myasthenia gravis results in skeletal muscle weakness that gets worse after periods of exertion and gets better after periods of rest. These muscles control respiration and the movement of various bodily parts, such as the arms and legs
Posterior Mediastinal tumors are benign or cancerous growths that form in the back area of the chest that separates the lungs. This area, called the posterior mediastinum, is surrounded by the spine in back and the lungs on each side. These tumors can develop at any age although 30-50years is the commonest affected age group.
Robotic Surgery is a revolutionary new concept in surgery where a "robot" is interposed between the patient and the surgeon. The Surgeon carries out the operation through highly specialised instruments controlled by the arms of robot.
Pneumonectomy is the technical term used for the surgical removal of the whole lung. Pneumonectomy is done in cases of destroyed lungs due to extensive tuberculosis / bacterial / fungal infections. This surgery is also performed to treat lung cancer when less radical surgery cannot achieve satisfactory results. In case the tumor is located near the center of the lung that involves the major pulmonary artery or veins, this surgery is more appropriate.
Most people with esophageal cancers can achieve long-term disease control with a combination of esophagectomy, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Esophageal cancer surgery alone also often provides good outcomes for people with early-stage esophageal cancers.
