Urinothorax was first described in 1968 by Corriere et al. as the presence of urine in the pleural cavity due to retroperitoneal leakage of accumulated urine. Herein, we present a female patient, who complained of dyspnea due to urinothorax. This is the first case of urinothorax that developed so tardive after radiotherapy and was diagnosed due to high clinical evidence despite the negative scintigraphy.
尿胸于 1968 年由 Corriere 等人首次描述,即由于尿液在腹膜后积聚而导致尿液渗漏到胸腔中。在此,我们介绍一位女性患者,因尿胸而出现呼吸困难。这是首例放射治疗后如此迟发性发生的尿胸病例,尽管闪烁扫描为阴性,但由于高临床证据而得以诊断。
