Abstract

The giant bullae is defined as the bullae formation of lung tissue which is larger than one half of a hemithorax. The presenting symptom is usually progressive dyspnea and the most important thing with this patient is that the underlying lung parenchyma has emphysematous changes or not. In this study, we aimed to presente a case with giant type I bullae whose lesion was mimicking left pulmonary arteria hypoplasia radiologically. The ginat bullae was resected via left thoracotomy and a complication of re-expansion pulmonary eudema occurred due to long time compression of viable parenchyma. The patient was discharged without any problem. The pulmonary function test showed excellent improvement after two months from surgery.

Özet

Bir hemitoraks hacminin yarısından fazlasını kaplayan büller dev bül olarak tanımlanır. Genellikle ilerleyici bir nefes darlığı olan bu hastalarda altta yatan akciğer parankiminde amfizematöz değişikliklerin olup olmadığı önemlidir. Biz de bu çalışmada, radyolojik olarak sol pulmoner arter hipoplazisini taklit eden dev tip 1 bülü olan bir olguyu sunmayı amaçladık. Hastaya sol torakotomi aracılığı ile bül rezeksiyonu uygulandı ve postoperatif dönemde sağlam parankimin uzun süreli basısına bağlı olarak reekspansiyon pulmoner ödem komplikasyonu gelişti. Hasta sorunsuz olarak taburcu edildi. Cerrahiden iki ay sonra solunum fonksiyon testlerinde mükemmel bir düzelme saptandı.
