An unusual form of atelectasis has been detected on CT of a patient with large pleural effusions. It has been interpreted to be the result of tethering of the lungs to the mediastinum by the pulmonary ligaments, which may have lacked normal elasticity in this case because of prior irradiation. This appearance may simulate a collection of dense material on the surface of an effusion when there is no obvious air bronchogram present.
在一名患有大量胸腔积液患者的CT检查中发现了一种不寻常的肺不张形式。据认为,这是由于肺韧带将肺与纵隔相连,在这种情况下,由于先前接受过放疗,肺韧带可能缺乏正常弹性所致。当没有明显的空气支气管征时,这种表现可能会模拟积液表面的致密物质聚集。
