Excessive aggregation of fine particles may play a crucial role in adolescent spontaneous pneumothorax pathogenesis [PDF]
Background The pathogenesis of primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) is unclear. Fine particles aggregated in the lung can be phagocytosed by alveolar macrophages (AMs) to induce an inflammatory reaction and damage local pulmonary tissue, which could be
