This course prepares medical experts to diagnose, plan and execute advanced surgical procedures on the lungs, esophagus, mediastinum and chest wall. This program offers a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical experience, enabling you to practice in real surgical settings with the mentorship of senior thoracic surgeons. The course covers everything from traditional open thoracic surgery to less invasive surgery such as video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and robotic thoracic surgery. The program is designed to mirror real-life clinical practice, covering diagnosis, surgical preparation, decision making and post-operational management, and preparing you for independent practice in thoracic surgery. Outcome of the Fellowship: At the completion of the program you should be capable of: Assess and manage thoracic surgical patients Carry out open and minimally invasive thoracic surgery Effectively use cutting-edge diagnostic and imaging technologies Perform complex thoracic oncological and reconstruction surgeries Provide optimal post-operative care and handle complications Career Opportunities: Upon completion of the fellowship, you will be able to: Subspecialized positions in thoracic surgery and cancer hospitals Expertise in minimally invasive and robotic thoracic surgery Subspecialty of thoracic oncology or lung transplantation Teaching and academic positions in surgery Starting your own thoracic surgery practice Download Brochure in Whatsapp What you’ll learn Foundations of Thoracic Surgery Surgical Procedures in Thoracic Surgery Thoracic Oncology Trauma and Critical Care in Thoracic Surgery Advanced Thoracic Procedures Research, Innovation, and Ethics in Thoracic Surgery Key Features Attending /Non-Attending Classes Clinical Training in Nearest Hospital/Clinics.
