The vast majority of pleural neoplasms invade the pleura secondarily and can be seen in patients with bronchogenic carcinoma, breast cancer, lymphoma, and ovarian or gastric carcinoma. Primary pleural neoplasms are less common, although they have developed notoriety since the up-surge of malignant mesothelioma and the knowledge of its connection to ...

Pneumothorax in the ED most often will be primary and spontaneous in a young person who may be treated with either chest tube, mini-chest tube, or aspiration of pneumothorax according to local preference. The other large group of pneumothoraces will be spontaneous but secondary to a disease process, procedure, or drug abuse. The treatment of these must

The lung function tests on 88 asbestos workers known to have an asbestos-related abnormality on the chest radiography have been analysed with respect to pleural disease. The degree of intrapulmonary and pleural disease were assessed by reading posteroanterior and both oblique films according to a modified ILO U/C Classification (1971). The results show
