dc.description.abstractIntroduction: Bullae are air filled spaces in lung parenchyma which develop in various diseases and cause respiratory compromise. Bulla which occupies one third of hemithorax is considered as a giant bulla. Case series: This case series consists of eleven cases of giant bullae with varied clinical and radiological features. Common presenta?ons include breathlessness, associated para-septal emphysema and complica?ons like pneumothorax. Conclusion: Pa?ents presen?ng with acute chest symptoms should also be evaluated for bullous disease and Computed tomography of chest can differen?ate pneumothorax from giant bullae.en_US
