Pleural effusion is common, in association with a range of different conditions, most commonly cardiac failure, pneumonia, malignancy, and pulmonary embolism. This chapter provides an approach to the assessment of the patient with a pleural effusion: history, examination, CXR, pleural ultrasound, along with guidance on which patients should undergo ...

A pleural effusion results from the accumulation of abnormal volumes (>10–20 mL) of fluid in the pleural space. Pleural effusions are common and are associated with many different diseases, differential diagnosis of effusions, and details of pleural fluid analysis.

Cardiology Clinics, 2017
The normal pericardial sac contains up to 50 mL of fluid, which consists of a plasma ultrafiltrate. Anything greater constitutes a pathologic effusion. The curvilinear pressure-volume relationship of the pericardial sac dictates hemodynamic consequences of a pericardial effusion and is responsible for rapidly accumulating fluid that causes cardiac ...

European Respiratory Journal, 1997
Transudative pleural effusions develop because the distribution of hydrostatic and oncotic pressure across the pleura is altered, so that the rate of pleural fluid formation exceeds that of its reabsorption. They are characterized by a low cell and protein content. Congestive heart failure is the most common cause of transudative effusion.

Novel use of pleural ultrasound can identify malignant entrapped lung prior to effusion drainage.
Chest, 2014BACKGROUND The presence of entrapped lung changes the appropriate management of malignant pleural effusion from pleurodesis to insertion of an indwelling pleural catheter.

Current Opinion in Oncology, 1992
Pleural effusions are a common development in patients with cancer. The optimal means of control are not defined, but systemic treatment is often effective in patients with drug-sensitive tumors. Local treatments advocated in the management of malignant pleural effusions differ in the means of drainage, the length of time pleural tubes are left in situ,

In this study the incidence and course of pleural effusions (parapneumonic effusions) in patients with acute bacterial pneumonia were prospectively evaluated. Bilateral decubitus chest x-ray films were obtained within 72 hours of admission in 203 patients with an acute febrile illness, purulent sputum and an infiltrate evident on the chest film. Ninety

Pediatric Emergency Care, 2007
The ability to recognize, understand, and treat pleural effusions in the pediatric population is important for pediatric health care providers. The topic of pleural effusions has been extensively studied in the adult population. In recent years, these studies have extended into the pediatric population. This review describes pleural effusions in detail,

Effusion uvéale, décollement ciliochoroïdien ou choroïdien, sont les synonymes d'une même entité correspondant à l'accumulation anormale de liquide dans l'espace suprachoroïdien ; cette présentation clinique ubiquitaire répond à des diagnostics et des sous-spécialités fort différents.
