Introduction: The article discusses formation and development of the Kuban school of thought in thoracic surgery. We reviewed the main aspects of the accumulation of knowledge and experience in thoracic surgery and formation of a scientific association of thoracic surgeons that further developed into a school of thought first regionally, then internationally.Objective: To analyze the main stages of the development of the Kuban school of thought in thoracic surgery through the prism of scholars who made major contributions to the formation of the school’s research concept, as well as through succession (transfer of scientific and medical experience).Materials and methods: Our methodology involved a comparative historical analysis of the most important stages of the development of the school of thought in thoracic surgery, a retrospective evaluation of the contributions made by the surgeons who transformed the surgical community, and a comprehensive analysis of research materials on this subject. We used retrospective, biographical, analytical, and comparative research methods.Results: We identified the fundamental trends in the development of the Kuban school of thought in thoracic surgery, key directions for improving the methods of chest pathology diagnosis and surgical treatment that have been forming in the Kuban over the past 100 years.The education and training of staff, as well as formation of a scientific medical community and its international integration clearly demonstrated the transformation dynamics of the Krasnodar Krai’s research potential in thoracic surgery.
