What is the survival rate of thoracic surgery?

The survival rate of thoracic surgery can vary depending on several factors, including the specific procedure, the individual patient’s health condition, and any potential complications during or after surgery. Generally, thoracic surgery has been shown to have a relatively high survival rate. For most common thoracic surgeries, such as lung or heart surgeries, the survival rates can range from approximately 80% to 95%. However, it is crucial to remember that each case is unique, and it is best to consult with a medical professional for personalized information and advice about your specific situation.
