Cystic Lung Disease Treatments

Treatment is individualized based on the specific diagnosis and disease severity. Options may include:

  • Inhaled bronchodilators to improve airflow
  • Pulmonary rehabilitation to enhance lung function and endurance
  • Oxygen therapy for patients with low oxygen levels
  • Medications targeting the underlying disease
  • Surgical interventions (in select cases)
  • Lung transplantation for advanced disease

If complications such as recurrent lung collapse occur, procedures like pleurodesis may be recommended to prevent recurrence.
