Treatment of pulmonary bullae


Healing hearts, one patient at a time.
After the patient with pulmonary bullae comes to the hospital, we still need to initially assess the severity of his condition, that is, we need to do a lung CT to assess the volume or area of his pulmonary bullae, or the number of pulmonary bullae. If the volume of pulmonary bullae is very large, it has affected the patient's respiratory function and affected the patient's quality of life. At this time, we should consider whether to perform surgery to remove the problematic lung, that is to say, this part of the lung of its pulmonary bullae, to ensure that its other lung tissues work normally. If its bullae are relatively small, or do not significantly affect lung function and quality of life, we are often a respiratory treatment, that is, symptomatic treatment, improve his corresponding symptoms, and do not go to the special treatment for its bullae, because the drugs we commonly use at this stage are ineffective for bullae treatment.
