This article helps you to understand why lung health is important. What are the treatments and surgical options by Medicover Hospital and how do we provide excellent respiratory care?
Importance of Lung Health
Understanding Lung Health
Lungs are respiratory organs that oxygenate blood and remove carbon dioxide from our body. Healthy lungs are vital for a healthy life and the overall good health of your other bodily systems. Pollution, smoking and infections are some of the triggers that affect lung health by causing conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD), Asthma or even Lung Cancer.
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Group of lung diseases that block airflow and make breathing difficult.
- Asthma: A long-term, inflammatory condition in which the airways narrow and swell; behaviours that result from its effects include increased mucus production, making it difficult to breathe.
- Lung Cancer: A cancer that starts in the lungs and is usually related to cigarette smoking.
- Pneumonia: An infection in the air sacs (alveoli) and/or tissues of either one or both lungs, caused by a virus, bacteria or rarely fungi.
- Pulmonary Fibrosis: A lung disease that occurs when lung tissue becomes damaged and scarred making it impossible for you to breathe normally.

Surgical Options for Lung Health
Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery
Medicover Hospital is dedicated to minimally invasive thoracic surgery, which has many advantages compared with traditional open surgery.
- Faster Recovery: With robotic technology, smaller incisions have been linked to faster healing and reduced levels of pain following the procedure.
- Reduced Blood Loss: Minimally invasive procedures result in less blood loss during surgery.
- Patients Get Discharged Faster: They can go back home and start their normal life after a lesser number of days spent in the hospital.
Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS)
One of the most commonly performed minimally invasive surgeries at Medicover Hospital. VATS is used in a variety of lung conditions, including:
- Lung Cancer: Partial or Whole Lung / Lobe Resection.
- Pleural Effusion: Removing pericardial effusion to the pleura.
- Pneumothorax: This is the repairing of collapsed lungs.
- Lung Biopsies: To harvest tissue for diagnostic reasons.
Robotic-Assisted Thoracic Surgery
We perform robotic-assisted thoracic surgery in Medicover Hospital (with greater precision and control) as well. Robotic arms are operated by the surgeon, who makes tiny incisions and then uses robots to perform more advanced procedures with improved precision. Robotic surgery offers many benefits.
- Better Precision: More control and adaptability for the surgeon.
- Reduced Complications: Risk less risk of an infection and other surgical complications
- Better Patient Outcomes: More success rates in better patient outcomes.
Post-Surgical Care and Rehabilitation

Providing appropriate post-surgical care is a crucial part of the healing process. The medical team at Medicover Hospital helps patients with detailed post-operative care to ensure a smooth recovery. This includes:
- Pain Management: Appropriate pain relief to make the patient comfortable.
