Introduction

Understanding Vats Biopsy
Vats Biopsy, also known as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery biopsy, is a minimally invasive procedure used to obtain tissue samples from the lungs or other parts of the chest cavity. This procedure allows our skilled surgeons to accurately diagnose various lung diseases, including lung cancer, infections, and other conditions affecting the chest area.
Advantages of Vats Biopsy
Vats Biopsy offers several advantages over traditional open surgery or needle biopsies. The minimally invasive nature of this procedure results in smaller incisions, reduced post-operative pain, shorter hospital stays, faster recovery time, and minimal scarring. Our experienced surgeons utilize advanced technology and equipment to perform Vats Biopsy, ensuring precise results and improved patient outcomes.

- Assessment of pleural diseases
During an initial consultation at Neumark Surgery, our expert medical team will evaluate each patient's condition thoroughly to determine if Vats Biopsy is the most suitable approach for accurate diagnosis.
The Vats Biopsy Procedure
Before the Vats Biopsy procedure, patients will undergo a comprehensive evaluation, including imaging tests such as CT scans. Our team will provide detailed instructions on pre-operative preparations, including fasting, medication management, and other necessary measures to ensure a smooth procedure.
Anesthesia
Vats Biopsy is typically performed under general anesthesia, allowing patients to sleep comfortably throughout the procedure. Our anesthesia specialists monitor patients closely to ensure their safety and well-being.
Surgical Steps
During the Vats Biopsy procedure:
- Small incisions are made on the chest wall, through which specialized instruments and a high-definition camera are inserted.
- The camera transmits real-time images to a monitor, allowing our surgeons to visualize the targeted area precisely.
- Tissue samples are obtained using special biopsy forceps or instruments guided by the camera.
- After the necessary samples are collected, the instruments are removed, and the incisions are closed with sutures or surgical glue.
The Vats Biopsy procedure usually takes around 1-2 hours, depending on the complexity of the case. Our experienced medical team ensures patient safety, comfort, and optimal surgical outcomes throughout the procedure.
Aftercare and Recovery
Following the Vats Biopsy procedure, patients are typically monitored in a recovery area before being discharged. It is normal to experience mild pain or discomfort near the incision sites, but this can be managed with prescribed pain medications. Our team provides detailed instructions on post-operative care, including wound care, activity restrictions, and follow-up appointments.
