A 26-year-old smoker male presented with a history of sudden onset dyspnea and right-sided chest pain. Chest radiograph revealed large right-sided pneumothorax which was managed with tube thoracostomy. High-resolution computed tomography thorax revealed multiple lung cysts, and for a definite diagnosis, a video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery-guided lung biopsy was performed followed by pleurodesis. This clinicopathologic conference discusses the clinical and radiological differential diagnoses, utility of lung biopsy, and management options for patients with such a clinical presentation.
一名26岁的男性吸烟者,有突发呼吸困难和右侧胸痛病史。胸部X线片显示右侧大量气胸,通过胸腔闭式引流进行治疗。胸部高分辨率计算机断层扫描显示多个肺囊肿,为明确诊断,在电视辅助胸腔镜手术引导下进行了肺活检,随后进行了胸膜固定术。本次临床病理讨论会讨论了此类临床表现患者的临床和影像学鉴别诊断、肺活检的作用以及治疗选择。
