The Relationship of Amount of Pleural Fluid and Time of Pleurodesis with the Results of Pleurodesis in Malignant Pleural Effusions [PDF]

, 2021
Background: Pleural effusion can be an early sign of lung cancer in more than 25% of cases. Lung cancer is the most common cause of ma­lignant pleural effusion (MPE).

Interesting Case of Lung Fibrosis in a Patient With Vascular Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. [PDF]

Respirol Case Rep
We present the case of a 39‐year‐old man with recurrent spontaneous (including bilateral) pneumothoraces and haemoptysis who had unusual thoracic computed tomography (CT) abnormalities. In the absence of typical phenotypic features, these radiological findings prompted genetic testing, which confirmed a pathogenic COL3A1 mutation and established the ...

Comparison of efficacy of autologous blood patch pleurodesis versus doxycycline pleurodesis in the management of persistent air leak in patients with secondary spontaneous pneumothorax. A randomized control trial

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2022
Secondary spontaneous pneumothorax (SSP) patients sometimes have a persistent air leak (PAL) that leads to increased morbidity and increased hospital stay. Further, these patients also need pleurodesis to prevent a recurrence.

Surgical Removal of Residual Tumor Masses in Patients Undergoing Targeted Therapy for EGFR‐Mutated Locally Advanced or Metastatic Lung Cancer

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 9, Page 2244-2261, 1 November 2026.
Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations often exhibit significant tumor reduction following tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Residual tumors frequently remain, however, leading to drug resistance and disease progression.

Pleurodesis: state of the art [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 1997
Pleurodesis aims to achieve a symphysis between parietal and visceral pleural surfaces, in order to prevent accumulation of fluid or air in the pleural space. Its major indications are malignant effusions and pneumothorax, and a re-expandable lung is essential for the success of the technique.
