No Time to Bleed! Ultrasound‐Guided Management of a Pleural Biopsy Complication: A Case Report
Ultrasound‐guided biopsies allow direct visualisation of target lesions, improve sampling site selection and have shown a significant reduction in major complications. Our case shows the efficacy of intrapleural adrenaline instillation in the management of pleural bleeding due to ultrasound‐guided pleural biopsy. ABSTRACT Malignant pleural disease is a
