Dupa Pathway Evaluation Program:

nota: In SUA, chirurgia cardiovasculara si chirurgia toracica sunt grupate in Cardiothoracic surgery sau doar Thoracic surgery, chirurgii supraspecializandu-se fie pe chestiuni cardiace sau pulmonare/legate de peretele toracic. La noi se merge direct pe una dintre cele doua filiere: Chirurgie cardiovasculara sau Chirurgie toracica.

Asadar:

Thoracic surgery, also known as cardiothoracic surgery and cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, encompasses all types of surgery within the chest cavity, which includes the heart, lungs and esophagus.  Thoracic surgeons are concerned with the operative, perioperative, and critical care of patients with pathologic conditions of the chest.  

Surgeons in this subspecialty often focus on certain organs and procedures within the chest cavity. A cardiac surgeon deals primarily with the surgical management of diseases of the blood supply to the heart, the heart valves, and the arteries and veins in the chest. A general thoracic surgeon treats emphysema; tumors of the lung, esophagus, chest wall, and mediastinum; swallowing problems and gastroesophageal reflux; abnormalities of the trachea; and diseases of the diaphragm. A congenital heart surgeon performs surgical corrections of heart defects and furnishes cardiovascular support to infants and children. Any of these subspecialists may perform heart, lung, and combined heart-lung transplantations. 


Dupa The Ultimate Guide to Choosing a Medical Specialty:

Cardiothoracic surgeons are experts on the heart, its complex physiology, and particularly the art of cardiopulmonary bypass. Within the domain of the heart, lungs, and mediastinum, they perform some of the most time consuming,regimented, and physically challenging of all operations. Their patients often leave the operating room in a critically ill state and head to the SICU for postoperative recovery. Surgery of the heart is delicate and fascinating. These surgeons treat conditions like blocked coronary arteries, thoracic aneurysms, and congenital abnormalities.

On the thoracic side, they also perform pulmonary resections (e.g., on patients with lung cancer), mediastinoscopy, and bronchoscopy, just to name a few. They also perform esophageal surgery for cancer, achalasia, and other disorders of the esophagus.
