Patient's question:
What does right lung bulla mean? How difficult is it to treat this condition? What is the probability that my father will fully recover?Doctor's answer:
Pneumothorax is mainly caused by congenital developmental abnormalities or chronic lung diseases, leading to excessive inflation and expansion of the alveoli. Generally, it does not present with obvious clinical symptoms. Whether treatment is needed depends largely on the size of the pneumothorax. If the pneumothorax is large, it is prone to rupture, resulting in pneumothorax, which poses significant health risks. In such cases, thoracoscopy surgery can be considered. The specific professional doctor will provide appropriate treatment advice.
