Tension Bullae With Peripheral Pneumothorax
JOURNAL OF INVESTIGATIVE MEDICINE HIGH IMPACT CASE REPORTS(2020)
摘要
The differentiation between tension bullae, chronic tension pneumothorax, and atypical pneumothorax is difficult just from history and physical examination alone. A chest X-ray may help determine the underlying etiology; however, further imaging with computed tomography in stable patients may be necessary for accurate assessment of size, number, and location before considering any interventions. In this article, we present a rare case report of tension bullae with peripheral pneumothorax and recommend against needle thoracostomy in stable patients with tension bullae in order to obtain further imaging that may result in a change in the standard management.
