LUNG COLLAPSE IN AVIATION

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1957
The problem of spontaneous pneumothorax is serious enough in normal occupations; in aviation it becomes more critical because of the victim's possible incapacitation and subsequent inability to control the aircraft. Also, the role of decreased barometric pressure in flight as an etiology of pneumothorax must be considered and evaluated for risk.

Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis Presenting as Lobar or Total Lung Collapse

Advances in Respiratory Medicine, 2015
Introduction: Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a T-helper cell 2 (Th2) mediated hypersensitive lung disorder in response to Aspergillus that usually affects asthmatic and cystic fibrosis (CF) patients.

Postoperative Massive Collapse of the Lungs

JAMA, 1960
Two patients have been encountered who died immediately after operation with pulmonary collapse. Each patient underwent a prolonged operation to correct esophageal obstruction and then suffered severe hypoventilation and died before adequate resuscitative measures could be instituted.

Collapse of the lung and porocephalosis

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1946
A brief reference is made to recorded cases of infestation with Armillifer armillatus in which the parasite has been .pathogenic.. All these cases had been diagnosed at autopsy. A case of pathogenic infestation with.this parasite is recorded in which the patient made a satisfactory recovery.

Enhancement of lung preservation by prevention of lung collapse

Journal of Surgical Research, 1973
Abstract Previous investigations of important factors in lung preservation have stressed the importance of denervation and ischemia as deterimental factors. We believe that lung collapse below the level of functional residual capacity during preservation also decreases the ability of the transplanted lung to provide total pulmonary function.

LUNG LOBE COLLAPSE

Veterinary Radiology, 1985
The radiographic changes caused by collapse of lung lobes in pulmonary disease, pneumothorax, and pleural effusion depend on the lobar recoiling force and local pleural pressure. Differences in the tendency of normal lung lobes or regions to collapse depend on the relative surface‐to‐volume ratio, determined by shape and size of the region or lobe ...

Massive Collapse of the Lungs

JAMA, 1961
To the Editor:— I do not agree that massive collapse of the lungs occurred in the cases described by Raffensperger and others inThe Journal, Nov. 12, 1960, page 1386. Many apparently forget that the air chambers do not constitute the lungs but merely a part thereof. If the thorax is normal, massive collapse of the lungs, by absorption of their gaseous

MASSIVE COLLAPSE OF THE LUNG

American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1925
Attention has frequently been called to massive collapse of the lung since Pasteur,1in 1890, reported thirty-four cases, occurring in patients with diphtheritic paralysis of the diaphragm. In 19082and 1914,3he made additional reports. In the latter paper he reported sixteen cases of massive collapse among the postoperative complications following 2,000
