The Genetics of Pneumothorax [PDF]
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 ...

Conservative versus interventional treatment for spontaneous pneumothorax
For a primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) (in a person with no underlying lung disease) with a visible rim of >2 cm between the lung margin and the chest wall (at the level of the hilum) on a chest radiograph, current guidelines recommend aspiration ...

Pneumothorax-either spontaneous or iatrogenic-is commonly encountered in pulmonary medicine. While secondary pneumothorax is caused by an underlying pulmonary disease, the spontaneous type occurs in healthy individuals without obvious cause. The British Thoracic Society (BTS, 2010) and the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP, 2001) published the
