Advanced Pulmonary Procedures
At Yashoda Hospitals, we are dedicated to providing a comprehensive range of advanced pulmonary procedures to address various respiratory conditions with precision and care. Here’s an overview of the key procedures we offer:
Bronchoscopy
Bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to examine the airways and lungs. A thin, flexible tube with a camera (bronchoscope) is inserted through the nose or mouth and into the lungs, allowing the doctor to view the airways and collect tissue samples if necessary. This procedure is commonly used to diagnose lung conditions, remove foreign objects, or treat certain lung diseases.
Bronchial Thermoplasty
Bronchial thermoplasty is an innovative procedure for treating severe asthma that doesn’t respond to standard medications. It involves using a bronchoscope to deliver controlled heat to the airway walls, reducing the muscle tissue responsible for airway constriction. This helps decrease the frequency and severity of asthma attacks, improving overall lung function and quality of life.
Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS)
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to diagnose and treat conditions in the chest, including lung cancer and other lung diseases. During VATS, small incisions are made, and a tiny camera (thoracoscope) is inserted, allowing the surgeon to operate with precision while minimizing trauma to the chest. This approach offers faster recovery times and less pain compared to traditional open surgery.
Bronchoscopic Recanalisation & Silicon Stent Placement
Bronchoscopic recanalisation and silicon stent placement are advanced procedures used to treat airway obstructions caused by tumors, strictures, or other conditions. Recanalisation involves using a bronchoscope to clear the blockage, while a silicon stent is placed to keep the airway open. This approach helps restore normal breathing and improves the patient’s quality of life.
Thoracoscopy
Thoracoscopy is a diagnostic procedure used to examine the pleural space, the area between the lungs and the chest wall. A small incision is made, and a thoracoscope (a thin tube with a camera) is inserted to visualize the pleura and lungs. Thoracoscopy is often used to diagnose pleural effusions, infections, or tumors and can also be used for biopsies.
Â
Lobectomy
Lobectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing one of the lobes of the lung, typically to treat lung cancer or severe infections. By removing the affected lobe, the procedure helps prevent the spread of disease and improves lung function. Lobectomy is often performed using minimally invasive techniques like VATS, which offer quicker recovery and less postoperative pain.
