Eosinophilic pleural effusions (EPE) account for 5%-8% of all exudative pleural effusions. A pleural effusion is defined as eosinophilic if it contains 10% or more eosinophils. We present the case of a 70-year-old man with EPE, blood eosinophilia and pericardial effusion due to dabigatran, a novel anti-thrombin agent.
嗜酸性胸腔积液（EPE）占所有渗出性胸腔积液的5%-8%。如果胸腔积液中嗜酸性粒细胞含量达到10%或更多，则被定义为嗜酸性胸腔积液。我们报告一例70岁男性患者，因新型抗凝血酶药物达比加群导致嗜酸性胸腔积液、血液嗜酸性粒细胞增多及心包积液。
