Following three brief clinical reports, we review the literature concerning a rare cause of exudative pleural effusion: the presence of a foreign body in the pleural cavity. Frequently iatrogenical, this rare etiology of pleural effusion must be envisaged when this complication develops after any invasive peri-thoracic surgery and must be included in the differential diagnosis of recurrent pleural effusions. These effusions have a favorable prognosis after withdrawal of the foreign body.
在三个简短的临床报告之后，我们回顾了关于渗出性胸腔积液一种罕见病因的文献：胸腔内存在异物。这种胸腔积液的罕见病因通常是医源性的，当在任何侵入性胸外科手术后出现这种并发症时，必须考虑到这一点，并且它必须包含在复发性胸腔积液的鉴别诊断中。取出异物后，这些积液的预后良好。
