Marco Scarci is a renowned thoracic surgeon based in London, specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of thoracic conditions. With a focus on minimally invasive techniques such as Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS), Marco Scarci provides cutting-edge, personalized care for patients with lung diseases, chest wall abnormalities, and other thoracic issues. Below are some of the key conditions treated at his clinic.
Mr Marco Scarci offers comprehensive cancer treatment for thoracic malignancies, including lung cancer, thymomas, and chest wall tumors. His approach integrates surgery with multidisciplinary care, working closely with oncologists, radiologists, and other specialists to provide a tailored treatment plan. Depending on the type and stage of cancer, Marco Scarci employs both curative and palliative surgical techniques, always focusing on patient outcomes and quality of life.
Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to treat lung cancer. This advanced approach allows for smaller incisions, less scarring, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery. Marco Scarci is an expert in performing VATS lobectomy and other lung resections, ensuring patients receive the most effective and least invasive treatment for their lung cancer.
Pneumothorax, or collapsed lung, occurs when air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall, causing the lung to collapse. Marco Scarci offers a range of treatments for pneumothorax, including chest drain insertion and VATS procedures to re-expand the lung and prevent recurrence. Early intervention is crucial to avoid complications, and Marco Scarci’s expertise ensures prompt and effective care.
Hyperhidrosis is a condition marked by excessive sweating, typically in areas like the palms, underarms, and face. For patients whose quality of life is affected by this condition, Marco Scarci offers Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (ETS), a minimally invasive surgery that interrupts the nerve signals responsible for excessive sweating, providing long-lasting relief.
Facial blushing is an involuntary reddening of the face, often triggered by emotional stress or embarrassment. For patients experiencing severe and persistent facial blushing, Marco Scarci offers surgical options such as Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (ETS), providing an effective, long-term solution to this condition.
Rib fractures, typically caused by trauma or injury, can result in significant pain and impact breathing. Marco Scarci specializes in both non-surgical management and surgical stabilization of rib fractures, ensuring patients recover fully and comfortably while restoring proper lung function.
Chest wall pain can arise from a variety of causes, including musculoskeletal issues or nerve irritation. Marco Scarci provides a thorough evaluation to determine the cause of the pain and offers a range of treatment options, from medications and physical therapy to minimally invasive surgery if required.
Thymoma is a rare tumor originating in the thymus gland, located in the upper chest. It is often associated with autoimmune conditions like myasthenia gravis. Marco Scarci specializes in the surgical removal of thymomas, utilizing minimally invasive techniques whenever possible to ensure optimal outcomes with faster recovery times.
Severe pneumonia is the most common cause of infected fluid accumulating in the pleural space between the lung and the chest wall. If the empyema is diagnosed promptly, the fluid can easily be removed using a chest drain or keyhole surgery (thoracoscopy).
Mr Marco Scarci is dedicated to providing exceptional, patient-centered care, combining his clinical expertise with the latest advancements in thoracic surgery. His focus on minimally invasive techniques ensures that patients receive the most effective treatment with shorter recovery times and improved outcomes. If you are experiencing any of the above conditions, Mr Marco Scarci offers consultations and tailored treatment in London, providing you with the highest level of thoracic care.
