The time I had to deal with this it was just like you described.  They sealed the wound up and then using a large gauge needle and a tube they "tapped" her chest sucked the positive air pressure out of the chest cavity allowing the lung to re-inflate and after 3-4 weeks of laying up she was getting around pretty good.  I don't think after her lung collapsed that she has ever had the "wind" that she had before though....
