A rare case of a unilateral re-expansion pulmonary edema following video-assisted thoracic surgery for malignant pleural effusion is described.

Bilateral pleural effusion and pulmonary edema caused by a fistulous aneurysm of the ductus arteriosus.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report an unusual case of pulmonary edema and rapid collection of bilateral pleural effusion caused by a fistulous large aneurysm of the ductus arteriosus (DAA). The diagnosis was performed by contrast CT and aortography. The cause of pulmonary edema and effusion was thought to be both elevated

[Idiopathic edema, capillaropathy, pericardial and pleural effusions with high protein content (author's transl)].

Only registered users can translate articles

Clinical and electron microscopic studies of two female patients are reported who, in addition to the symptoms and signs of idiopathic edema, had pericardial (and pleural) effusions. In one patient pericardiectomy had to be performed, in the other patient pharmacotherapy with spironolactone was

Long-Term Outcomes After Thoracoamniotic Shunt for Pleural Effusions With Secondary Hydrops.

Only registered users can translate articles

Congenital pleural effusion is a rare condition with an incidence of approximately one per 15,000 pregnancies. The development of secondary hydrops is a poor prognostic indicator and such cases can be managed with a thoracoamniotic shunt (TAS). Our objective is to describe postnatal

Hereditary late-onset lymphedema with pleural effusion and laryngeal edema.

Only registered users can translate articles

We examined two middle-aged male cousins with unexplained edema of postpubertal onset involving the upper and lower limbs, face, and larynx and, in one of them, a persistent pleural effusion. Scintilymphangiography detected an apparent paucity or absence of lymph nodes in the axillae and above the

Thoracoamniotic shunting for fetal pleural effusions with hydrops.

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate perinatal outcome after thoracoamniotic shunting for fetal pleural effusions with hydrops. METHODS This was a retrospective study. RESULTS Shunting was performed immediately after diagnosis and was successful in all 54 of the cases that were

[Pleural effusion and severe edema of the lower limbs induced by bromocriptine].

Only registered users can translate articles

High doses of bromocriptine used for treatment of Parkinson's disease may be associated with pleuropulmonary complications. Isolated pleural effusions are a rare manifestation as is lower limbs edema are an exceptionally one. We report the case of a 67-year-old man, treated since five years by a

An autopsy case of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome with massive pulmonary edema and pleural effusion.

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is the most serious complication of ovulation induction with exogenous gonadotropins, such as human menopausal gonadotropin and follicle-stimulating hormone. These hormones are considered to increase capillary permeability and cause third space fluid shift.

Reexpansion pulmonary edema occurring after thoracoscopic drainage of a pleural effusion.

Only registered users can translate articles

Video assisted thoracoscopic drainage and tale pleurodesis was used to treat a recurrent pleural effusion in a 60 year-old woman undergoing major gynecologic surgery. She developed reexpansion pulmonary edema immediately following surgery. Several important risk factors that were present in this

Focal reexpansion pulmonary edema after drainage of large pleural effusions: clinical evidence suggesting hypoxic injury to the lung as the cause of edema.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The purposes of this study were to review possible causes of reexpansion pulmonary edema (RPE) and to attempt to explain atypical distributions of RPE after drainage of large pleural effusions. METHODS Five patients had focal RPE after routine drainage of large pleural effusions. In these

[Emergency thoraco amniotic shunting in cases with compressive pleural effusion with hydrops: A retrospective study of 60 cases].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To study perinatal outcome following thoraco-amniotic shunting for fetal pleural effusions with hydrops. METHODS Retrospective study (1984-2004) to evaluate a policy of emergency thracoamniotic shunting in hydropic fetuses with suspected chylothorax, on the basis of the rationale that

Roles of the visceral pleura in the production of pleural effusion in permeability pulmonary edema.

Only registered users can translate articles

We investigated the roles of the mesothelium of the visceral pleura on hydraulic conductivity in dogs under normal conditions and condition of permeability pulmonary edema. Nineteen mongrel dogs were divided into following 4 groups: thoracotomy alone (control group, n = 7); thoracotomy and striping

Relationship of pleural effusions to increased permeability pulmonary edema in anesthetized sheep.

Only registered users can translate articles

We studied anesthetized sheep to determine the relationship between increased permeability pulmonary edema and the development and mechanism of pleural effusion formation. In 12 sheep with intact, closed thoraces, we studied the time course of pleural liquid formation after 0.12 ml/kg i.v. oleic
