Aims and Scope

Current Thoracic Surgery is the official, peer-reviewed, open-access publication of the Turkish Society of Thoracic Surgery. The journal aims to provide a global platform for the dissemination of high-quality research in general thoracic surgery, thoracic oncology, lung transplantation, and pulmonary diseases.

While keeping a strong focus on clinical trials and experimental studies, the journal particularly welcomes manuscripts on minimally invasive thoracic surgery (VATS/RATS) and technological advancements in the field. Our goal is to bridge the gap between regional practices and international standards, serving thoracic surgeons, residents, and researchers worldwide.
