EPOC; epoc; Epoc: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que, el acrónimo de enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica es "EPOC", enteramente con mayúsculas, y puede lexicalizarse como "epoc", con minúsculas, por lo que "Epoc" es una grafía inadecuada. [...] El plural, por su parte, no se marca en la escritura en el propio acrónimo (las "EPOC", no las "EPOCs"), pero sí en la forma lexicalizada, en la que se añade -s (las "epocs"). 3, record 1, Spanish, - enfermedad%20pulmonar%20obstructiva%20cr%C3%B3nica
