We provide clinical services for both cardiac and thoracic pathologies.

We have established a centre of excellence in cardiac and aortic surgery, internationally recognised for pioneering minimally invasive techniques and mastering the most demanding re-operative procedures, which constitute 12% of our substantial surgical volume. Our elective coronary revascularisation mortality has remained below 1% for ten consecutive years—a benchmark of surgical precision sustained across a decade.

Our aortic root enlargement and mitral valve programmes have ascended to international prominence, delivering superior short- and mid-term outcomes that set the standard for the field. The aortic surgery division operates through a fully integrated, multidisciplinary consortium of interventional radiology, vascular surgery, cardiology, and anaesthesia, offering comprehensive therapeutic solutions for the most complex aortic pathologies.

Since 2007, we have advanced thoracic aortic care through endovascular innovation, accelerated by the inauguration of a state-of-the-art hybrid operating theatre in 2013. Our open aortic capabilities span the complete anatomical spectrum—from root and arch to descending and thoracoabdominal reconstruction—with outcomes that rank among the foremost in the discipline.

Our total arch replacement and frozen elephant trunk programme has drawn more than thirty international observers over the past decade, affirming our position as a global destination for advanced aortic training and knowledge exchange.

The thoracic side of our division provides world-class service in areas of minimally invasive video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and robotic-assisted thoracic surgery for all thoracic conditions of the lung, mediastinum and chest wall.

In particular, our team is well known in the region for bronchoscopic and airway surgery, minimally invasive and bronchoscopic treatment for emphysema, and chest wall reconstruction. Since introducing single port (uniportal) VATS lobectomy to Hong Kong in 2012, we have become a centre of excellence and training for local and regional surgeons, organizing numerous courses including the Asian Single Port VATS symposium, and hosting more than 30 observers and fellows.

In the past decade, the thoracic team has pioneered and mastered the used of hybrid operating theatre with advanced imaging capabilities to manage complex thoracic malignancies, localize small lung tumours, and allowing “one stop one shop” approach to managing lung cancers. Our work has driven the global trend of intra-operative imaging in thoracic surgery, as well as lung parenchyma sparing resections.

More recently, the division has become the world leader in navigation bronchoscopy and robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RAB) for lung nodule diagnosis, localization and therapies. Having introduced bronchoscopic microwave ablation to Asia in 2019, and performed world's first RAB ablation in 2021, we have one of the largest experiences in the world of non-invasive ablative treatment approach to lung tumours, hosting international conferences, and training local doctors and visitors from across the globe. Our team also works closely with the internationally renowned lung cancer group from Department of Clinical Oncology to provide the best possible treatment plan and care for cancer patients.
