The accumulation of air (pneumothorax) or fluid (pleural effusion) between the membranes surrounding the lung (pleura) due to various reasons causes the lung to collapse and leads to severe shortness of breath. In the management of pleural diseases, a comprehensive treatment process is conducted, ranging from the emergency evacuation of accumulated air or fluid to minimally invasive (VATS) surgical interventions aimed at preventing the recurrence of the disease. Through these interventions, planned specifically for each patient's clinical presentation, the goal is to restore lung functions to full capacity as quickly as possible.

Masses in the mediastinal region, located in the central part of the chest cavity adjacent to the heart and major blood vessels, typically encompass diseases such as thymoma originating from the thymus gland. Surgical interventions in this area are operations that require high-level expertise and technical precision due to their proximity to vital organs. With our contemporary surgical approaches, tumors in this delicate region are resected within safe margins, providing our patients with the most reliable treatment options.

VATS (Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery), the gold standard in modern lung cancer surgery, is a minimally invasive method performed with the aid of a camera through several small incisions instead of traditional large incisions. Thanks to this closed technique, patients experience significantly less postoperative pain, the risk of infection is reduced, and hospital stays are substantially shortened. With this method, applied through academic expertise and advanced surgical equipment, cancerous tissues are resected with high precision, aiming for patients to return to their daily lives as quickly as possible.
