Thoracic surgery

Japanese: 胸部外科 - きょうぶげか(英語表記)thoracic surgery
Thoracic surgery
This refers to surgery that targets diseases of the heart, great blood vessels, lungs, esophagus, mediastinum, etc. Until the introduction of new surgical techniques in the early 1930s, intrathoracic surgery was rare and unsafe. However, thanks to advances in research in surgery, physiology, biochemistry, physics, etc., it has now become commonplace. Cardiac surgery in particular has progressed dramatically since 1939.

心臓,大血管,肺,食道,縦隔などの疾患を対象とする外科をいう。 1930年代の初めに新しい外科技術が導入されるまでは,胸郭内の手術を行うことは珍しく,安全度も低いものであった。しかし,外科学,生理学,生化学,物理学などの研究成果により,現在では日常的なものとなっている。特に心臓外科は 1939年以降は劇的に進歩した。
