Dr. Amit Patil (Thoracic surgeon)

What conditions are treated?

Thoracic surgery deals with disorders of the chest wall, lungs, mediastinum, and esophagus, covering both cancer diagnostics and planned operative management.

Clinic visits and surgical evaluations

Patients usually bring along existing contrast CT scans, biopsy reports, and pulmonary function test results to their initial consultation. Surgical decisions depend entirely on accurate tissue diagnosis.

• Evaluation of solitary pulmonary nodules
• Surgical management of lung lesions
• Mediastinal mass resections
• Chest wall tumor assessments

Careful pre-operative cardiopulmonary fitness assessment guides every major intervention, especially for older patients or individuals with longstanding tobacco exposure. Follow-up reviews track healing and pathology outcomes.
