What is focal linear scar right lobe?

Dr. Yelena Kipervas answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Scar: If my suggestion is right you mean scar in right lobe of lung. It's usually scar of previous lung infection like tuberculosis or pneumonia or others old problems - pleuritis, atelectasis, trauma, surgery.
