Pleural fluid cholesterol level is an important parameter in differentiating exudative from transudative pleural effusions

, 2018
Background: The first important step is to decide whether the pleural effusion is transudate or exudates by Light’s criteria. Light’s criteria can misclassify 25% of pleural transudates as exudates.
