慢性阻塞性肺病(慢性阻塞性肺病)
The group of lung diseases that limit the flow of air through the lungs. 慢性阻塞性肺病会导致喘息、咳嗽和呼吸困难. The most common types of 慢性阻塞性肺病 are emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
慢性阻塞性肺病 can result from smoking and long-term exposure to air pollution. 携带α -1的人更容易患上慢性阻塞性肺病.
α -1抗胰蛋白酶缺乏引起的肺损伤
Alpha-1 occurs when both parents pass an abnormal gene to a child. People with this condition don’t make enough alpha-1 antitrypsin, 一种帮助平衡组织生长和破坏的蛋白质. As a result, the lungs, liver and skin can become damaged over time.
Most people with alpha-1 don’t have symptoms when they’re young. 症状通常在30岁左右出现. 它们包括:
- 咳嗽产生过多粘液或血液的咳嗽
- Jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes) and edema (swelling of the limbs), 哪些是肝病的征兆
- Painful red rash or lesions that result from inflammation under the outer layers of skin (panniculitis)

微创肺减容术
在慢性阻塞性肺病晚期,肺部会出现“空气困住”.” This happens when the lungs don’t empty air like they should. 病, poorly working parts of the lung take up more space and prevent the healthy parts from working properly. 药物和氧气治疗可能无法缓解症状.
Our experienced 介入位肺脏 perform bronchoscopic lung volume reduction to treat 慢性阻塞性肺病. This minimally invasive 慢性阻塞性肺病 treatment blocks off or removes diseased lung tissue so healthy lung tissue can work better. 我们用薄的, 柔性管与相机来执行这一过程, 这比传统手术需要更短的恢复时间.
