Dr. Robert Caccavale and Dr. Jean-Philippe Bocage have operated as a team for over twenty years, performing Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS), a procedure they pioneered in the early 1990s. VATS is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to access the chest cavity to operate on the lung, mediastinum and pleura.
Primarily, VATS is utilized to treat conditions such as cancer, myasthenia gravis, pneumothorax, infection, cysts and other thoracic disorders – providing patients with significant benefits.
