Bronchial Thermoplasty Including the Middle Lobe Bronchus Significantly Improves Lung Function and Quality of Life in Patients Suffering from Severe Asthma

Robert P. Cortell Giner · Lung · 2019

Summary

BT including the RML bronchus is feasible and Functionally limited patients with severe asthma could potentially profit, and BT should be followed by clean-up bronchoscopy, not only after RML treatment.
