Ultrasound-assisted small catheter placement may be considered in cases where computed tomography guidance is unavailable, and ultrasound can identify pleural effusions clearly, even in cases where empyema is localized solely on the dorsal side.
Thoracic catheter insertion for empyema can be challenging when the pleural effusion is localized dorsally and computed tomography guidance is unavailable. We report the case of a 40-year-old man with acute dorsal bacterial empyema who underwent successful ultrasound-assisted catheter placement in an orthopneic position.
在无法进行计算机断层扫描引导且超声能够清晰识别胸腔积液的情况下，即使脓胸仅局限于背侧，也可考虑超声辅助下放置小导管。
当胸腔积液局限于背侧且无法进行计算机断层扫描引导时，胸腔置管引流脓胸可能具有挑战性。我们报告了一例40岁男性急性背侧细菌性脓胸患者，在端坐位成功进行了超声辅助导管置入。
