High-Resolution CT Findings of Re-Expansion Pulmonary Edema
OBJECTIVE To describe the high-resolution CT (HRCT) findings of re-expansion pulmonary edema (REPE) following a thoracentesis for a spontaneous pneumothorax. MATERIALS AND METHODS HRCT scans from 43 patients who developed REPE immediately after a thoracentesis for treatment of pneumothorax were retrospectively analyzed. The study group consisted of 41 men and two women with a mean age of 34 y...
متن کاملSevere Re-expansion Pulmonary Edema Induced by One-Lung Ventilation.
We present 2 cases of severe re-expansion pulmonary edema (RPE) after one-lung ventilation (OLV) for thoracic surgery. A 32-y-old woman with multiple lung metastases developed severe RPE after OLV during lung resection surgery. A 37-y-old man with infective endocarditis also developed severe RPE after OLV for mitral valve plasty with minimally invasive cardiac surgery. In both cases, results of...
متن کاملRe-expansion pulmonary oedema.
Clinical details are given of two patients who developed ipsilateral pulmonary oedema following re-expansion of their spontaneous pneumothoraces by intercostal drainage of air. The possible mechanisms underlying the oedema are discussed, and prior literature is analysed. Reference is made particularly to its predictability and to precautions recommended to minimize the frequency of this potenti...
متن کاملIpsilateral re-expansion pulmonary edema in a neurosurgical patient--a case report.
We report a case of a 42-year-old female with right parietal glioma, scheduled for elective craniotomy and tumor excision. The patient developed pneumothorax in the postoperative period. An incidence of unilateral pulmonary edema occurring as a result of rapid re-expansion of collapsed lungs is described. This type of pulmonary edema may delay postoperative recovery and have a catastrophic cour...
متن کاملOriginal Article Role of Rho-kinase in Re-expansion Pulmonary edema in Rabbits
Re-expansion of a collapsed lung increases the microvascular permeability and causes re-expansion pulmonary edema. Neutrophils and their products have been implicated in the development of this phenomenon. The small GTP-binding proteins Rho and its target Rho-kinase (ROCK) regulate endothelial permeability, though their roles in re-expansion pulmonary edema remain unclear. We studied the contri...
