  • Hemothorax can result in either tension physiology or hypovolemic shock, both of which will take several minutes to hours to manifest as blood has to accumulate in the pleural space. (nejm.org)
  • Pneumothorax can result in tension physiology as well - though the hemodynamic compromise from this, when a patient is on mechanical ventilation, is usually quicker than with hemothorax. (nejm.org)

  • 1. Puchalski J, et.al .Etiologies of bilateral pleural effusions. (radiopaedia.org)
  • Bilateral pleural effusions sometimes have different etiologies (Contarini condition)-for example, an exudative pleural effusion (empyema) in one thorax and a transudative pleural effusion (heart failure) on the other side. (manualofmedicine.com)

  • Whether unilateral or bilateral, a transudate can usually be treated without extensive evaluation, whereas the cause of an exudate requires investigation. (msdmanuals.com)
  • Hemothorax of a significant degree secondary to rib fractures is usually the result of laceration of an intercostal artery rather than bleeding from the lung. (medscape.com)
  • Lung lobectomy of the right caudal lobe resulted in clinical resolution of the bilateral pneumothorax. (avma.org)
  • An inward displacement of the rib fracture fragments at the time of the injury may lacerate the lung parenchyma and produce a pneumothorax, with a possible hemothorax. (medscape.com)

  • This case report describes an injury to the left inferior phrenic artery caused by blunt trauma, which was complicated by massive hemothorax, and treated with transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE). (biomedcentral.com)
  • In the present case, blunt trauma led to left inferior phrenic artery injury associated with massive hemothorax, which was treated with TAE alone. (biomedcentral.com)

  • If the contusions are bilateral (involving both lungs), the patient becomes progressively hypoxic and may reach a point where, despite mechanical ventilation, they cannot be oxygenated and they die. (rvananderson.com)
  • CVC placement can also result in vascular injury, most commonly through arterial puncture, which can subsequently cause a hemothorax. (nejm.org)
  • While the injury resulting in hemothorax and pneumothorax occurs during line placement, it usually takes some time for the patient to clinically deteriorate from these complications. (nejm.org)
  • Patients with severe hypotension require an emergency ultrasound to look for pericardial fluid, haemothorax and pneumothorax and immediate transfer to theatre for a thoracotomy with little delay. (criticalcare-sonography.com)
