Join us for an expert-led masterclass on Thoracic Surgery: Basics to Robotics, led by Dr. Shaiwal Khandelwal, Director - Thoracic Surgery, Max Hospital, Gurugram.
Dr. Khandelwal will cover:
Core components of a thorough thoracic evaluation in general practice (history, CXR/CT basics, spirometry/PFTs, fitness assessment)
Identifying red flags early: hemoptysis, non-resolving lung opacities/nodules, recurrent pneumothorax, complicated empyema, mediastinal masses—when to investigate and when to refer
Common surgical indications and procedures—from decortication and bullectomy to lobectomy and mediastinal mass excision; open vs VATS vs robotic (RATS): selection, outcomes, and recovery
TB and post-TB sequelae (bronchiectasis, trapped/destroyed lung): when surgery helps and how to optimize patients pre-op
Coordinating care across borders: what African doctors should prepare when referring to India (imaging formats, tissue diagnosis/staging, labs) and structuring the patient journey to surgery
This session is built for Jivo Doctor Partners and African General Practitioners, Pulmonologists, General Surgeons, Thoracic Surgery trainees, and Oncology teams who encounter patients with chest pathology—with the goal of enabling early recognition, structured workup, and cross-border care alignment for safe, timely thoracic surgery.
