Abstract
Expansion of the pandemic produced by new coronavirus SATS-CoV-2 has made healthcare focused on patients with COVID-19 disease, leading to discontinue most of elective surgical procedures. Being thoracic surgery eminently oncological, an optimal triage of patients amenable to be safely operated on is mandatory. Moreover, severe pulmonary involvement by COVID-19 causes complications frequently needing urgent thoracic surgical procedures under a new context. The Spanish Society of Thoracic Surgery (SECT) has developed this document to establish basic recommendations to keep up essential elective surgical activity and to guide surgeons facing thoracic urgencies in this new and unknown environment.
