Background: Pleural effusion is an excessive accumulation of fluid in the space lies between the lung and chest wall i.e. pleural space. In normal condition, pleural space contains 0.1–0.3 ml/kg body weight of fluid (near about of 10 ml of fluid on each

Differentiation of Exudates from Transudate Pleural Effusion by Measuring Cholesterol and Bilirubin
Introduction & Objective: Differentiating exudates from transudate is the first step in examining pleural effusion. Moreover, it is a guide for determination of pathologic trend of background diseases and differential diagnosis.

[Pleural effusion: criteria for distinguishing between transudates and exudates].
The first step in the diagnostic study of a pleural effusion is to classify as a transudate or exudate. Light's criteria (pleural fluid/serum proteines > 0.5; lactatedehydrogenase [LDH] > 2/3 of the upper normal limit in serum; pleural fluid/serum LDH > 0.6) usually used, incorrectly classify some cases, especially transudates.
