Interventional Pulmonology

Doctor Name

Dr. Y. Soma Sai Kiran

Interventional pulmonology plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of complex lung diseases using minimally invasive techniques. Dr. Y Soma Sai Kiran, a specialist in Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine, is highly skilled in performing bronchoscopy, thoracoscopy, and Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) to accurately diagnose and manage respiratory conditions. These advanced procedures reduce recovery time, minimize complications, and improve patient outcomes.

1. Bronchoscopy – A Window into the Lungs

Bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows direct visualization of the airways to diagnose and treat lung conditions. Dr. Y Soma Sai Kiran uses bronchoscopy for:
✔ Detecting lung infections, tuberculosis, and pneumonia
✔ Diagnosing lung cancer with biopsy procedures

✔ Removing airway blockages caused by mucus, tumors, or foreign objects
✔ Administering medication directly into the lungs for treatment

2. Thoracoscopy – Diagnosing Pleural Diseases

Thoracoscopy (medical pleuroscopy) is a minimally invasive procedure that examines the pleural space (lining around the lungs) to diagnose and treat pleural diseases. It is highly effective for:
✔ Diagnosing pleural effusion (fluid buildup around the lungs)
✔ Detecting pleural tuberculosis and pleural malignancies
✔ Performing pleurodesis to prevent recurrent fluid accumulation
✔ Taking pleural biopsies for accurate diagnosis

3. Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) – Precision in Lung Disease Diagnosis

EBUS is an advanced technique that combines bronchoscopy with ultrasound to visualize and biopsy structures deep within the lungs and chest. Dr. Y Soma Sai Kiran uses EBUS for:
✔ Early detection and staging of lung cancer
✔ Diagnosing tuberculosis and sarcoidosis
✔ Evaluating mediastinal (chest cavity) lymph nodes
✔ Minimally invasive biopsy without the need for surgery

With a patient-centered approach and expertise in cutting-edge interventional techniquesDr. Y Soma Sai Kiran ensures that lung diseases are diagnosed quickly, accurately, and treated effectively, improving lung health and overall well-being.
