What's wrong with pulmonary bubbles?

The concept of a pulmonary bubble does not exist. A close approximation to this concept is bullae. Bullae can occur in congenital abnormalities. They can also occur in patients with COPD. Most bullae do not require special treatment, but sometimes they can cause spontaneous pneumothorax, which often requires surgical treatment. In addition, it is also necessary to note that patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary emphysema may also cause localized pulmonary bullae, accompanied by obvious chest tightness, dyspnea and other related conditions. In this case, corresponding treatment is also needed, and pulmonary bullae can also be removed. After this treatment method, it is equivalent to lung volume reduction surgery for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary emphysema. After this non-volume reduction treatment, the patient's chest tightness and dyspnea may be improved to a certain extent.
