Features: In recent years, medical science has accelerated its progress in both fundamental theories and clinical practice. With the advancement of science and technology, especially in electronic technology and biotechnology, cardiac and thoracic surgery has also made significant strides. However, classical surgical procedures still hold a dominant position in clinical surgical work. In light of this, Surgical Atlas of General Thoracic Surgery concisely and comprehensively explains the indications, contraindications, and surgical steps of routine operations. It also introduces some recently developed international surgical techniques that have already been adopted domestically, such as lung volume reduction surgery, lung transplantation, and video-assisted thoracic surgery. During the compilation process, we strived to achieve the following objectives:
1. The book thoroughly explains key issues and critical surgical steps in medical practice, avoiding ambiguous descriptions as much as possible.
2. The atlas incorporates our clinical experience and strives to express it in a visual format.
3. For recently developed international surgical techniques, we also share our preliminary experiences, such as the description of indications, contraindications, and surgical steps.
In summary, we hope that readers can refer to this book to perform surgeries and avoid errors, making it highly readable. It provides a comprehensive understanding of newly developed surgical techniques, and after careful study, readers can implement these procedures in their respective institutions.
