Vaping brought Kirov teenager to lung surgery
The Ministry of Health told about a serious case involving a 16-year-old teenager from Kirov. A long fascination with electronic cigarettes led to a serious illness. The young man developed so—called bullae, blisters in his lung tissue that suddenly burst, causing a bilateral pneumothorax. The teenager needed an urgent operation, and now he has been transferred to a federal clinic, where doctors continue to fight for his life.
Doctors note that such cases are not isolated. There is even a new vaping—related disease, EVALI. This is a severe lung injury due to harmful substances in e-cigarette liquids. It often leads to the formation of those very bulls that can rupture at any moment. Vitamin E acetate is considered particularly dangerous: when heated, it turns into a sticky mass that settles in the lungs.
