Lobectomy and Pneumonectomy

These are surgical procedures where we remove damaged or diseased portions of your lung. A lobectomy removes one lobe of your lung (your right lung has three lobes, and your left has two), while a pneumonectomy removes an entire lung. These procedures are typically performed to treat lung cancer, but may also be necessary for other conditions like severe infections or bronchiectasis.

We perform these surgeries using either traditional open surgery or minimally invasive techniques, depending on your specific situation. Recovery typically involves a hospital stay of 5-7 days, followed by a rehabilitation period at home. Our team provides comprehensive support throughout your recovery, including pain management and breathing exercises to help you regain strength.
