Functional outcomes after bullectomy in Group III bullous emphysema: a single-center 24-month follow-up study

Slavisa Bascarevic, Maja Ercegovac, Marko Popovic, Milan Savić et autres

Background: Bullous emphysema is a distinct form of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), characterized by the presence of large air-filled spaces that compress adjacent lung parenchyma and impair ventilation. Surgical resection of bullae (bullectomy) aims to restore lung expansion and improve respiratory …
