Fulminant pulmonary edema developed after rapid lung reexpansion following diaphragmatic herniorrhaphy in a cat. Despite medical treatment, the cat died. Pulmonary edema is a potential complication of lung reexpansion achieved by negative intrathoracic pressure or positive-pressure ventilation. Slow expansion of a collapsed lung over a 12-hour period may help prevent this devastating complication.
一只猫在膈疝修补术后肺快速复张后发生了暴发性肺水肿。尽管进行了药物治疗，这只猫还是死了。肺水肿是通过胸腔内负压或正压通气实现肺复张的潜在并发症。在12小时内缓慢扩张萎陷的肺可能有助于预防这种毁灭性的并发症。
