The cause of pleural effusion in 44 (73.3%) of patients was pneumonia, 12 (20.0%) tuberculosis, and 4 (5.7%) had congestive heart failure (CHF). Conclusion: The cause of pleural effusion in the pediatric age group is commonly infection. Taking preventive measures, ...
Does CHF cause pleural effusion? Pleural Effusion: Pleural effusion is a condition where the pleural space is filled with a collection of fluid. Pleural space is the space in between the lungs and the wall of the chest. The pleural fluid typically contains a small amount of protein, but in...
Pleural effusion is the abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pleural cavity between the lining of the lungs and the thoracic cavity (i.e., the visceral and parietal pleurae). Normally, a small amo...
In both groups, the four most common diagnoses were malignancy, CHF, parapneumonic and postoperative effusions accounting for greater than 70 percent of each group. Review of the literature demonstrated the following associations with APE: recent childbirth or abdominal surgery, benign asbestos effusion...
Purpose Pleural effusion is a common finding in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). The pathogenesis of pleural effusion in heart failure is multifactorial. However, the role of right and left ventricular function assessed by ECHO cardiogram has not been studied. Therefore, we explored the...
Thus, owing to the increasing CHF the segment is anticipated to grow over the forecast period. A transudative pleural effusion develops when the systemic factors influencing the formation or absorption of the pleural fluid are altered. The pleural surfaces are not involved in the primary pathologic...
