this is a surgery involving the chest/thorax.
Superior Mediastinal ^^^NO its Pericardial
Mediastinum. That is the cavity that contains the heart.
The chest cavity (thoracic cavity) would need to be opened for coronary bypass surgery to access the heart and perform the surgery.
surgery in the chest cavity.
The two main cavites are Thoracic (above the diaphragm) and the abdaminopelvic (below the diaphragm) Then those have cavieties in them the thoracic has the pleural cavities which there 2 of those one for each lung. then there is the the mediastinal cavity between the two peural cavities. then i believe the Mediastinal cavity contains the Pericardial cavity for the heart. sorry about the spelling. then the abdominopelvic is splitt into two sub cavities the abdominal and pelvic cavity. they may be more but those are the ones I know of The two main cavites are Thoracic (above the diaphragm) and the abdaminopelvic (below the diaphragm) Then those have cavieties in them the thoracic has the pleural cavities which there 2 of those one for each lung. then there is the the mediastinal cavity between the two peural cavities. then i believe the Mediastinal cavity contains the Pericardial cavity for the heart. sorry about the spelling. then the abdominopelvic is splitt into two sub cavities the abdominal and pelvic cavity. they may be more but those are the ones I know of
The medical term for the removal of a mediastinal organ is mediastinal organ resection. This procedure involves the surgical removal or partial removal of an organ located in the mediastinum, the central compartment of the chest cavity. It is typically performed to treat conditions such as tumors or infections affecting organs in this region.
There are a number of enlarged lymph nodes noted in the center of the chest cavity.
The mediastinum is the area in the center of the chest between the lungs. Superior in general refers to closer to the head - or "upper".
The spinal cavity is involved in lumbar surgery.
Surgical thoracoscopy, also known as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), is a minimally invasive procedure used to access the thoracic cavity for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Excision of pericardial and mediastinal tissues may be performed to address conditions such as tumors, infections, or inflammatory diseases. This approach offers benefits such as reduced postoperative pain, shorter recovery times, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgery. The procedure is typically guided by video imaging, allowing for precise manipulation and removal of targeted tissues.
