VATS – Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery
VATS (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery) and MICS (minimally invasive cardiac surgery) describe minimally invasive surgical methods in pulmonary and cardiac surgery. They boast significant advantages over traditional open surgery.
Classic procedures require a median sternotomy, while VATS/MICS operations are minimally invasive.
- Less blood loss
- Reduced post-operative discomfort
- Faster recovery times
- Lower risk of infection
- Less traumatic surgery qualifies a larger number of patients
RZ offers specialised instruments and endoscopes for video-assisted access and minimally invasive surgery.
