Herniated lung - 1253704

Hi Mary, I found this link about a herniated lung from a Grace search. It's the only result pertaining to a herniated lung. It appears to be a fairly rare occurrence.

I hope this helps,

You're question really depends on the exact anatomy of the herniation and the nodule. It's a question that can only be answered by a surgeon who is looking at the imaging. But, a good surgeon, in addition to having good hands, should explain what he/she needs to do it in plain English for you.
