Hi and welcome to our wonderful forum. A lobectomy is an operation where
part of something is removed. Ex: Colon lobectomy, part of the colon is
removed, right lower lung lobectomy, only part of the lung is surgicaly
removed. Now why is a lobectomy done? Many instances for cancer; but there
are other health reasons also. Good luck, your friend, lillian
