What Is The Reason For An Easy Lung Surgery With No Severe Bleeding?
a surgeon removed three adjacent bronchopulmonary segmants from the left lung of a patient with TB. Almost half of the lung was removed, yet there was no severe bleeding and relatively few blood vessels had to be cauterized. Why was the surgery so easy to perform?

Hi
In general there isn't much in the way of blood loss connected with this kind of surgery so there isn't anything unusual or unexpected here
