Welcome to the Premier Lung Surgery Center

When it comes to respiratory health, finding a reliable and exceptional lung surgery center is crucial. The Lung Surgery Center of Neumark Surgery is dedicated to providing advanced surgical care for conditions affecting the lungs and respiratory system. Our commitment to excellence in patient care ensures that you receive the highest quality treatment tailored to your individual needs.

Understanding Lung Surgery

Lung surgery encompasses a variety of procedures aimed at treating diseases and conditions affecting the lungs. These can range from minor interventions to serious operations, and understanding the scope of lung surgery is essential for patients considering their options. Common reasons for lung surgery include:

• Lung Cancer: Removal of cancerous tissues or entire lobes of the lung through procedures such as lobectomy or pneumonectomy.
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Surgical interventions to improve breathing and lung function, including lung volume reduction surgery.
• Infections: Surgical treatments for lung abscesses and severe infections that do not respond to medical therapy.
• Benign Tumors: Removal of non-cancerous growths that can obstruct airways or interfere with lung function.
• Interstitial Lung Disease: Procedures to alleviate symptoms or improve lung function in patients with scarring of lung tissue.

Types of Lung Surgery We Offer

Our lung surgery center specializes in a variety of surgical techniques tailored to address different lung-related conditions. Here are some of the key surgical procedures offered:

1. Lobectomy

During a lobectomy, a surgeon removes a lobe of the lung affected by disease, typically due to cancer or severe infection. This procedure can significantly improve breathing and overall lung function for many patients.

2. Pneumonectomy

A pneumonectomy involves the removal of an entire lung and is often performed in severe cases, such as advanced lung cancer. Patients require comprehensive pre-surgery evaluation and post-operative support to recover successfully.

3. Wedge Resection

This procedure involves the removal of a small section of the lung, typically for early-stage cancer or small benign tumors. Wedge resections have a shorter recovery time than more extensive surgeries.

4. Lung Volume Reduction Surgery

Lung volume reduction surgery is primarily for patients with emphysema. The surgery removes the most diseased lung tissue, allowing the remaining healthy lung tissue to function more effectively, improving overall lung capacity and quality of life.

5. Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS)

VATS is a minimally invasive surgical technique that allows surgeons to view the lungs through small incisions using a camera. This technique minimizes recovery time and may reduce complications associated with larger incisions.

Understanding the surgical process can alleviate anxiety and prepare you for what to expect. Here’s a comprehensive overview of what happens when you choose Neumark Surgery’s lung surgery center.
