Mediastinal tumor resection is the name for the procedure that involves the removal of tumors in the area of the chest cavity that separates the lungs. Malignant tumors must be removed to prevent the spread of the cancer. Without removal or treatment, the cancer could spread to the heart or begin to compress the spinal cord. Once the patient is anesthetized, mediastinal tumor resection can be performed through either one large or several small incisions. Traditional tumor resection utilizes a large, central incision in the chest, while video-assisted mediastinal tumor resection utilizes several small incisions, a video camera inserted into one incision, and miniature surgical instruments inserted through the other incisions. Chest tubes may be inserted to help facilitate drainage of fluid and air from the chest cavity. Once released from the hospital, you should avoid lifting any objects heavier than five pounds. You are also asked not to drive for four to six weeks, but walking at least twice a day is encouraged. Fatigue typically lasts no longer than three to four weeks. No rehabilitation therapy is required following this surgery.
