Thoracoscopy Treatment in Kondapur

Thoracoscopy, a crucial diagnostic procedure, enables physicians to explore the lungs and pleural space when conventional tests provide inconclusive results. Using a thoracoscope, a thin, flexible tube equipped with a light and a small video camera, doctors can obtain tissue samples for microscopic examination and culture. This procedure is essential for evaluating lung surfaces, pleura, and draining fluid buildup in the pleural space.

Thoracoscopy can be conducted under general anesthesia or sedation with a local anesthetic. Dr. Himabindu performs this procedure with utmost precision and care. Initially, medications are administered through an intravenous line, inducing deep sleep. A breathing tube is inserted into the patient's neck, connected to a breathing machine. The thoracoscope is introduced through a small incision below the shoulder blade, allowing access to abnormal areas for biopsy. Additional cuts are made as needed for fluid drainage, ensuring thorough examination and treatment.

Dr. Himabindu's expertise ensures a comfortable and efficient procedure, typically lasting between 30 to 90 minutes. His extensive experience and unmatched skills make him a trusted Pulmonologist.
