Pleural Diseases


Pleurisy - an infection of the pleural cavity. Pleural effusion - the buildup of pleural fluid in the pleural cavity. Pneumothorax - the presence of air or gas in the pleural cavity. Hem thorax - the presence of blood in the pleural cavity. Many different conditions can cause pleural problems. Viral infection is the most common cause of pleurisy. The most common cause of pleural effusion is congestive heart failure. Lung diseases, like COPD, tuberculosis, and acute lung injury, cause pneumothorax. Injury to the chest is the most common cause of hem thorax. Treatment focuses on removing fluid, air, or blood from the pleural space, relieving symptoms, and treating the underlying condition.
