Surgeon - Cardiothoracic
Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University

I am Dr. Güntuğ Batıhan, currently serving as an Associate Professor in the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University. My academic and clinical focus centers on advancing minimally invasive thoracic surgery techniques, with a particular emphasis on Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS). I have accumulated extensive experience in a wide array of thoracic procedures, especially in performing complex anatomical lung resections and segmentectomies through VATS, continuously striving to push the boundaries of precision and patient outcomes in minimally invasive thoracic interventions.
