EMPHYSEMA

By
EMPHYSEMA Emphysema ( Greek : emphysan : inflate Itself composed of en meaning in and physan   meaning breath, blast)  Emphysema means swelling. Emphysema is included in a group of the disease called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is often caused by long term exposure to air pollution or smoking. Emphysema causes dilation of air spaces by the destruction of the alveolar wall, leading to the collapse of alveoli during expiration. Emphysema is a long-term progressive disease of the lungs that primarily causes shortness of breath. There is the destruction of lung tissue around smaller sacs, called alveoli, which makes their air sacs unable to hold their functional shape upon exhalation. That is why it is called obstructive lung disease. ETIOLOGY 1)Tobacco smoking 2) Atmospheric pollution 3) Infections 4) Genetic factor 5) Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency 6) Inherited diseases (rare) [ Marfan syndrome, Menke's syndrome] 7) Severe cases of Alpha I a...

This gives a hollow appearance in the center of the chest. The posture of the patient also gets disturbed. Also called “sunken chest” or “funnel chest.” It can be mild, if it becomes severe then it can affect the heart and lungs. When it becomes severe, it may lead to breathlessness, chest pain, and irritation. Treatment Surgical repair is done under local anesthesia.
