Pulmonary Department

The pulmonary department deals with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the lungs, mediastinum and pleura. It is a part of the comprehensive pneumooncology centre, closely cooperating with the Third Clinic of Thoracic Surgery in Motol.

The outpatient tract includes a general clinic, a bronchoscopy department, a functional pulmonary diagnostics department, centres for the treatment of fibrotic lung processes and the treatment of severe asthma, a clinic for sleep-disordered breathing and an clinic for the treatment of tobacco dependence. The inpatient part of the department consists of a station with 20 standard beds.

Dear patients
due to the staffing situation at the Pulmonary Department, we are forced to reduce the operation of the pulmonary follow-up outpatient clinic.

Stable conditions and mild stages of chronic lung diseases will be handed over to the follow-up care of outpatient pulmonary and allergology clinics.
Care for advanced stages of lung diseases, patients with malignant diseases of the lungs and chest, and the examination and treatment of acute and complicated pulmonary conditions remain unchanged.
Also unchanged is the operation of the specialised centres for interstitial lung disease and severe asthma, the bronchoscopy unit and the tobacco dependence treatment clinic.
Patients with appointments in our care will be informed of further steps during their scheduled check-ups.

Thank you for your understanding.
