A normal and collapsed lung. (WC/Blausen gallery 2014)
Pneumothorax is air within the potential space between the parietal pleura and visceral pleura leading to a partial or complete collapse of the lung.
GeneralLung (Left Upper Lobe), Resection: - Emphysematous changes with lung belbs/bullae. - Focal subpleural fibrosis and pigmented airspace macrophages. - NEGATIVE for significant inflammation. - NEGATIVE for significant interstitial fibrosis. - NEGATIVE for malignancy. - Please see comment. Comment: The wedge-shaped pattern of fibrotic healing seen in the pleura is typical of spontaneous pneumothorax.Alternate
A. Lung, Right Upper Lobe - Apical Segment, Wedge Resection: - Mild emphysematous changes. - Focal subpleural fibrosis. - NEGATIVE for significant inflammation. - NEGATIVE for significant interstitial fibrosis. - NEGATIVE for malignancy. - Please see comment. B. Lung, Right Upper Lobe - Posterior Segment, Wedge Resection: - Mild emphysematous changes. - Focal subpleural fibrosis. - NEGATIVE for significant inflammation. - NEGATIVE for significant interstitial fibrosis. - NEGATIVE for malignancy. - Please see comment. Comment: The wedge-shaped pattern of fibrotic healing seen in the pleura is typical of spontaneous pneumothorax. The emphysema present may be a contributory factor; however, other causes must be excluded clinically.See also References
