Comparison of Efficacy and Safety of Different Types of One-Way Valves in Endoscopic Lung Volume Reduction in Patients with Severe Lung Emphysema
Our study suggests that both types of valves are safe and effective in the treatment of severe lung emphysema. We recommend choosing the valve type based on individual bronchial anatomy. However, further randomized studies are needed to confirm our results.
