Sometimes such patients may present with symptoms like chest pain while other patients may become asymptomatic. In this report we describe a patient with a giant pulmonary bulla occupying the whole right upper lobe inferiorly compressing the middle lobe and lower lobe with transmediastinal herniation at the level of the anterior junctional zone as per CT Chest, who had history of occasional attacks of lower right chest pain. Having diagnosed the patient in our facility, he was referred to another facility for possible bullectomy.enGiant BullaePneumothoraxCXRGiant Bullae as a Great Mimicker of Pneumothorax in a symptomatic young adult Individual seen on CXR and CT chestTechnical Report
