Delayed complications to foreign body aspiration include bronchial stenosis, recurrent pneumonia, pneumothorax, recurrent hemoptysis, and chronic lung disease.102 Evaluation In a case of suspected acute asphyxiation of a foreign body, imaging should not delay intervention, but imaging is indicated in ...
(a), bilateral, diffuse ground-glass opacities with a mosaic attenuation pattern; and in advanced stages (b–c) more extensive ground-glass opacities and paren- chymal, variable in shape and size cysts (arrows in b and c), whose rupture can sometimes lead to pneumothorax (white * in c...
CONCLUSIONS:The pulmonary lesions of patients recovering from COVID-19 and who do not require invasive mechanical ventilation were gradually absorbed and resolved over time.

A Case of Spontaneous Pneumothorax 21 Days After Diagnosis of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pneumonia Ashraf Abushahin,John Degliuomini[...] DOI: 10.12659/AJCR.925787 Am J Case Rep 2020; 21:e925787 3810128447 22 Jul 2020: Case report ...
Radiological images, including chest X-rays and CT scans, were evaluated for the presence of the following features: lung opacities that could be ground-glass opacities and/or consolidation, pleural effusion or pneumothorax, linear atelectasis, reticulation, distribution within the lung (peripheral, ...
Among 45 cases, 93.3% were misdiagnosed by chest X-ray, which showed 'pseudo-pneumothorax line', with compressed lung displaced centrifugally away from hilum. In DH, the diaphragm appeared indistinct without gastric bubbles, whereas the air-fluid level might be noted. Finally, 66.7% of ...
Complications can include disseminated disease. Bone involvement, such as vertebral osteomyelitis and sacroiliitis are common with disseminated diseases.[31]Pneumothorax, Psoas abscess, bone marrow granuloma, liver granuloma, and possible spleen abscesses have also been described in the literature.[32]CNS...
stenosis to tracheoesophageal fistula has been reported with an overall incidence of 12%.[67]Other complications, such as spontaneous pneumothorax, fatal hemoptysis, and vascular injury, are uncommon but have been reported in the literature and have a higher risk in the repeated irradiation setting....
Background: Pneumothorax, the most common air leak syndrome, is potentially a life-threatening condition in neonates with little compensatory pulmonary reserve. Hemodynamically significant pneumothorax requires drainage with large-bore chest tubes, and more recently, the use of modified small-calibre percut...
The most serious risk with this procedure is that the needle puncture may cause an air leak from the lung (pneumothorax). This air leak occurs in as many as 3%-5% of cases. Although this condition can be dangerous, it is almost always recognized quickly and treated without serious consequenc...
