Patient
Opacity on the left hemithorax covering the left heart, left hemidiaphragma, left
costophrenicus angle, narrowing intercostal space
•Conclusion:
- Pleural Effusion Sinistra with atelectasis component inside, the possibility
there is a mass cannot be removed
Pleural Effusions
Pleural effusions, the result of the accumulation of fluid in the pleural space
Normally, pleural fluid in pleural cavity amount 1-20 ml
Many patients have no symptoms at the time a pleural effusion
is discovered. Possible symptoms include pleuritic chest pain,
dyspnea, and a dry, nonproductive cough.
Pleural Effusion Types of
• Subpulmonic
• Free-flowing
• Laminar
• Loculated
• Fissural (pseudotumor)
Atelectasis
Loss of lung volume
Types of :
Resorptive (obstructive)
Passive (compressive)
Adhesive (subsegmental)
Cicatrization (scarring)
Direct Sign
• Displacement of Interlobular fissures
Indirect Signs
• Increase in lung density
• Elevation of the hemidiaphragm
• Mediastinal shift
• Compensatory overinflation
• Approximation of ribs

•Conclusion:
- Abscess right lung
- Aorta sklerosis
Lung Absess
Lung abscess is defined as a circumscribed area of pus or necrotic debris in lung
parenchima, which leads to a cavity, and after formation of bronchopulmonary
fistula, an air-fluid level inside the cavity
By etiology:
Primary (aspiration of oropharyngeal secretions, necrotizing pneumonia,
immunodeficiency);
Secondary (bronchial obstructions, haematogenic dissemination, direct
spreading from mediastinal infection, from subphrenium, coexisting lung
diseases);
Way of spreading:
Brochogenic (aspiration of oropharyngeal secretions, bronchial obstruction by
tumor, foreign body, enlarged lymph nodes, congenital malformation);
Haematogenic (abdominal sepsis, infective endocarditis, septic
thromboembolisms).
Imaging Findings
Usually single cavity
Cavities typically have a
Thick-wall (which may become thinner as the surrounding
inflammation resolves)
Smooth inner margin
Air-fluid level
More frequent in superior segments of lower lobes or
posterior segments of lower lobes
Unlike pleural collections, lung abscesses frequently have a
fluid level which is approximately the same length on both
the frontal and lateral projection
About 1/3 may have an associated empyema

Indication : Ascites + renal failure + liver
failure
Thorax AP
Thorax AP
Opacity on the right and left hemithorax covering the right and left hemidiaphragma,
right and left costophrenicus angle on the half hemithorax dextra sinistra with minor
fissure thickness
•Conclusion:
- Edema pulmonum
- Cardiomegaly
- Bilateral pleural effusion
Pulmonary Edema
Increase in the fluid in the lung Generally, divided into cardiogenic and non-cardiogenic
categories
Congestive heart failure is the leading diagnosis in hospitalized patients older than 65
Cardiogenic pulmonary edema.
Heart failure
Coronary artery disease with left ventricular failure.
Cardiac arrhythmias
Fluid overload -- for example, kidney failure.
Cardiomyopathy
Obstructing valvular lesions -- for example, mitral stenosis
Myocarditis and infectious endocarditis
Non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema -- due to changes in capillary permeability
Smoke inhalation.
Head trauma
Overwhelming sepsis.
Hypovolemia shock
Imaging Findings
The key findings of cardiogenic pulmonary edema Kerley B lines (septal lines)
Seen at the lung bases, usually no more than 1 mm thick and 1 cm long, perpendicular to
the pleural surface
Pleural effusions
Usually bilateral, frequently the right side being larger than the left
If unilateral, more often on the right
Fluid in the fissures
Thickening of the major or minor fissure
Peribronchial cuffing
Visualization of small doughnut-shaped rings representing fluid in thickened bronchial
walls
Collectively, the above four findings comprise pulmonary interstitial edema
The heart may or may not be enlarged
When the fluid enters the alveoli themselves, the airspace disease is typically
diffuse, and there are no air bronchograms
