[|Human|] My husband has already undergone surgery to remove the upper lobe of his left lung. We have just been advised that the lower lobe must now be removed due to growth of the cancer. It is no where else in his body. This surgery will mean that he will only have one lung. Our question is, how will this affect his life style, if at all, as we are very fit and healthy people. His lung capacity is in the highest level of fitness.Thank you
[|AI|]  Hello, If his lung functions (lung volumes and capacities) are good (above normal), then no need to worry in living with one lung. Just make sure he is doing chest physiotherapy (deep breathing exercises and incentive spirometry) regularly to build up the strength of remaining lung. Regular PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) should be done to keep watch on lung functions. Don't worry he will be able to live a normal life.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
