Hemothorax and chylothorax

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 1997
Hemothorax and chylothorax remain perplexing medical problems. The primary cause of hemothorax is trauma, whereas the primary cause of chylothorax is cancer. Most patients with hemothorax can be treated with chest tube drainage only. Early thoracotomy with thoracic duct ligation is recommended for patients with chylothorax when conservative treatment ...

Implementation of the 300-mL Rule for the Management of Traumatic Hemothorax.

Journal of the American College of Surgeons
BACKGROUND Traumatic hemothorax (HTX) is often managed with tube thoracostomy (TT); however, TT carries a high complication rate. In 2017, a guideline was implemented at our Level I trauma center to observe traumatic HTX ≤300mL in hemodynamically stable ...

How emergency physicians choose chest tube size for traumatic pneumothorax or hemothorax: a comparison between 28Fr and smaller tube

Nagoya journal of medical science, 2020
Most traumatic pneumothoraxes and hemothoraxes can be managed non-operatively by means of chest tube thoracostomy. This study aimed to investigate how emergency physicians choose chest tube size and whether chest tube size affects patient outcome.

Spontaneous hemothorax

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians, 1979
A 31-year-old man presented to the emergency department with dyspnea and pleuritic chest pain resulting from a spontaneous hemothorax. A tube thoracostomy was performed on the left side and 700 cc of blood removed. Another 1800 cc of blood oozed from the chest tube. Open thoracotomy was performed in the operating room.

Hemothorax

2009
I. Introduction Hemothorax is defined as accumulation of a significant amount of blood in the pleural space. By pure visualization of pleural fluid, it is clinically difficult to judge the amount of blood, and usually this is overestimated (1). For a hemothorax, the hematocrit of the pleural fluid should be at least 50% that of the peripheral blood (2).
