A high-quality thoracoscopic procedure has been performed at Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Dammam
A 15-year-old patient was moved from another hospital to Dammam's Al-Mouwasat Hospital, complaining of acute chest discomfort, shortness of breath, and difficulty to do everyday tasks. Dr. Ahmed Hamoud, a chest surgery consultant, evaluated the patient and performed the appropriate X-rays and magnetic resonance imaging of the chest, which revealed a huge mass compressing the heart and lungs in the mediastinum (the area between the lungs). In another facility, the patient was given a major surgery to remove the lump through the usual procedure of accessing the chest bone.
Because of the sophisticated capabilities and technology available at Al-Mouwasat Hospital in Dammam, this procedure was completed and the whole mass was removed utilizing little surgical intervention with thoracoscopic surgery. Three days following surgery, the patient was released in good and stable health.
It is worth noting that thoracoscopic surgery is regarded as a precise procedure that lowers post-operative discomfort for the patient and aids in the patient's quick recovery and return to regular life. This sort of procedure is based on current medical technology, which is consistent with Al-goal Mouwasat's for medical services, which is to attract highly qualified and specialized professionals by utilizing the most recent medical methods and equipment in this sector.
