Pneumothorax in Mechanically Ventilated Patients with COVID-19 Infection

Case Reports in Critical Care, 2021
Data on patient-related factors associated with pneumothorax among critically ill patients with COVID-19 pneumonia is limited. Reports of spontaneous pneumothorax in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) suggest that the COVID-19 infection ...

The Genetics of Pneumothorax [PDF]

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2019
A genetic influence on spontaneous pneumothoraces-those occurring without a traumatic or iatrogenic cause-is supported by several lines of evidence: 1) pneumothorax can cluster in families (i.e., familial spontaneous pneumothorax), 2) mutations in the FLCN gene have been found in both familial and sporadic cases, and 3) pneumothorax is a known ...

Pneumothorax in connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BACKGROUND:Spontaneous pneumothorax is a complication that occurs in patients with connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD); however, few studies on the clinical implications of pneumothorax for patients with CTD-ILD have ...

Pneumothorax after CT-guided transthoracic lung biopsy: A comparison between immediate and delayed occurrence.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BackgroundIn CT-guided transthoracic lung biopsy (CTLB), pneumothorax can occur as a late complication (delayed pneumothorax). The incidence, risk factors, and clinical significance of delayed pneumothorax are not well known.ObjectivesTo compare the risk

Pleurography (thoracography) for pleural fistulas: A case seriesCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques, 2021
Background: Pleurography (PG) has been described previously but has not gained popularity. PG can determine the exact air leak points in the lung, which is important for treating pneumothorax and pleural fistulas.

Deep Learning-Based Computer-Aided Pneumothorax Detection Using Chest X-ray Images

Italian National Conference on Sensors, 2022
Pneumothorax is a thoracic disease leading to failure of the respiratory system, cardiac arrest, or in extreme cases, death. Chest X-ray (CXR) imaging is the primary diagnostic imaging technique for the diagnosis of pneumothorax. A computerized diagnosis
