Hi,i'm a 37 year old male. i recently had a lung collapse 2 months ago. i don't smoke, i exercise regularly, and i have no family history of lung collapse. the ct scan showed no signs of deformities, and no sign of blebs. what's my recurrence chance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
By UPTODATE: newer studies suggest average recurrence rates between 10 and 30 percent at one to five year follow-up period, with the highest risk occurring in the first 30 days through the first year.
