In the field of surgery, the specialists of thoracic surgery deal with the most delicate district of the body, where the heart and lungs are located.
The Villa Margherita specialist team, led by Prof. Venuta, deals with all surgical pathologies of the respiratory system, the mediastinum, the esophagus and the thoracic wall through minimally invasive interventions such as thoracoscopy, endoscopy (fibrobronchoscopy) and traditional surgery thanks to the support of the post-operative intensive care unit.
