What do Thoracic & Cardiothoracic Vascular Surgery Physicians do?

Thoracic, cardiothoracic, and vascular surgery physicians perform surgery on the heart, lungs, esophagus, and other organs in the chest cavity, including the aorta and major blood vessels. 

They treat a wide range of conditions, from coronary artery disease and heart valve issues to lung cancer, esophageal disorders, and aortic aneurysms. 

These specialists use both traditional open-chest surgery and advanced minimally invasive techniques, like video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), to repair and replace damaged structures.  

What they do

Cardiovascular surgery: Repairing and replacing heart valves, performing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), and treating heart arrhythmias and congenital defects. 

Pulmonary surgery: Removing tumors from the lungs, treating lung cancer, and performing lung transplants. 

Esophageal and mediastinal surgery: Operating on tumors in the esophagus and mediastinum, as well as treating conditions like GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) and hiatal hernias. 

Vascular surgery: Repairing the aorta (e.g., aortic aneurysm or dissection repair), and treating carotid artery stenosis. 

Other procedures: Repairing chest wall deformities and operating on the diaphragm and trachea. 

Surgical techniques: Utilizing a range of procedures, from complex open surgeries to minimally invasive techniques that allow for shorter recovery times. 

Conditions treated

Vascular conditions: Aortic aneurysms, aortic dissection, carotid artery stenosis. 

Heart conditions: Coronary artery disease, heart failure, heart valve issues, and heart tumors.

Lung conditions: Lung cancer, tumors, and other masses.
