pleural effusionpleural fluids kineticslymphatic drainageThe salt-avid state that accounts for the clinical syndrome congestive heart failure (CHF) leads to an initial expansion of intra- and subsequent rise in extravascular volumes that can include the appearance of pleural effusion. Herein, we present...
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...
several sections: clinical course and manifestations of RPE; diagnostic approach to pleural effusion in RA patients; laboratory features of RPE; differential diagnosis between RPE and pleural involvement in other rheumatic diseases; pleural empyema; pathogenesis of pleural exudate in RA; treatment of RPE...
Transudative pleural effusion (TPE) fluid is similar to the fluid that one normally has in his/her pleural space. It forms from liquid leaking across the normal pleura. This type rarely needs to be drained unless it is very large. Congestive heart failure (CHF) is the most common cause o...
1). The chest tube brought from local hospital was ineffective in draining the fluid, leading us to conduct a thoracoscopy to investigate the cause of the pleural effusion. The intraoperative exploration revealed that the drainage tube was in the thoracic cavity with only a small amount of fluid...

CONCLUSIONS: It is suggested that TCM herbal formulas could play an important role in preventing the progression of unilateral pleural effusion secondary to CHF, in case of poor response to conservative treatment. Additional studies about the mechanism of action of the medication involved are warranted...
