Four patients with primary disease in the chest are discussed, each coming to laparotomy. The final postoperative diagnoses were empyema, pulmonary tuberculosis, pulmonary embolism and bacterial endocarditis. These cases well illustrate the real risk of confusing an acute chest condition with an acute abdomen.
讨论了4例胸部原发性疾病患者，均接受了剖腹手术。术后最终诊断为脓胸、肺结核、肺栓塞和细菌性心内膜炎。这些病例很好地说明了将急性胸部疾病误诊为急腹症的实际风险。
