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

Pleural effusions, pneumomediastinum, and pneumothorax are known complications of pregnancy. Although reported in small series and anecdotal case reports, the serious nature of these complications and the potential for misdiagnosis during the events of labor and delivery warrant a careful review of the available literature.

The pleural space is a potential space under normal physiologic circumstances. It envelops the lung, the mediastinum, the diaphragm and the chest wall. A thin film of pleural fluid provides lubrication for the two pleural layers; only 2-10 ml of pleural fluid is present in healthy people.

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

Amyloidosis and Pleural Disease
Chest, 1990Pleural involvement with systemic amyloidosis has been reported rarely in the literature. Diagnosis of this entity by percutaneous needle biopsy of the pleura has been described only in two prior case reports. We describe five patients in whom the diagnosis of pleural amyloidosis was established by Cope needle biopsy during evaluation of pleural ...

The many faces of transforming growth factor-beta in pleural diseases.
Current opinion in pulmonary medicine, 2001Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta is responsible for critical regulatory functions in many physiologic and pathologic processes. Emerging evidence suggests that these roles also apply to a multitude of pleural diseases.

Whilst many occupational and environmental diseases affect the lung parenchyma it is only asbestos dust which results in radiographic manifestations in the pleura and these may be due to either benign or malignant processes. © 2005 Springer-Verlag Tokyo.
