A 73-year-old male was admitted with a large rounded atelectasis with pleural effusion. The involved lung was refilled with air as soon as surgical decortication of the thickened visceral pleura covering it was performed. Surgical treatment is believed to be necessary when a large rounded atelectasis with pleural effusion persists for a long time, or when malignancy is not completely excluded.
一名73岁男性因伴有胸腔积液的巨大圆形肺不张入院。一旦对覆盖其的增厚脏层胸膜进行手术剥脱,受累肺就会重新充满气体。当伴有胸腔积液的巨大圆形肺不张长期持续存在,或未完全排除恶性肿瘤时,认为有必要进行手术治疗。
