Bullous emphysema is also known as vanishing lung syndrome. It is most often treated by surgical removal of the bulla, which can grow to 20 centimeters—more than a foot—in diameter. A bulla that takes up a third or more of the space in and around the affected lung is called a giant bulla.

Lung granulomas are localized (focal) areas of inflammation in the lungs. There may be a single granuloma, or multiple granulomas scattered throughout the lungs. A lung granuloma is a localized collection of inflammatory cells.
The major noninfectious causes of granulomatous lung disease are sarcoidosis, Wegener granulomatosis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, hot tub lung, aspiration pneumonia, and talc granulomatosis.
For example, lung mass and multiple lung nodules are specifically indexed to code R91. 8, Other nonspecific abnormal finding of lung field.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, refers to a group of diseases that cause airflow blockage and breathing-related problems. It includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. COPD makes breathing difficult for the 16 million Americans who have this disease.
Code G47. 33 is the diagnosis code used for Obstructive Sleep Apnea. It is a sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing or instances of shallow breathing during sleep.
A chronic disease in which the bronchial airways in the lungs become narrowed and swollen, making it difficult to breathe. Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, tightness in the chest, shortness of breath, and rapid breathing.
8 for Other nonspecific abnormal finding of lung field is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
A subcategory of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd). It occurs in people who smoke and suffer from chronic bronchitis. It is characterized by inflation of the alveoli, alveolar wall damage, and reduction in the number of alveoli, resulting in difficulty breathing.
A subcategory of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd).
Pulmonary emphysema can be classified by the location and distribution of the lesions. Pulmonary emphysema is a disorder affecting the alveoli (tiny air sacs) of the lungs. The transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs takes place in the walls of the alveoli.
An abnormal increase in the size of the air spaces, resulting in breathing difficulty and an increased sensitivity to infection. Emphysema is a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) involving damage to the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs. As a result, your body does not get the oxygen it needs.
Clinical Information. A condition of the lung characterized by increase beyond normal in the size of air spaces distal to the terminal bronchioles, either from dilatation of the alveoli or from destruction of their walls.
Treatment is based on whether your symptoms are mild, moderate or severe. Treatments include inhalers, oxygen, medications and sometimes surgery to relieve symptoms and prevent complications . Enlargement of air spaces distal to the terminal bronchioles where gas-exchange normally takes place.
