  2. Tumor-like disorders of the lung pleura - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor-like_Disorders_of...

    On radiological studies, thoracic splenic lesions are visualized using CT scans. Visualized lesions can be described as solitary or multiple nodules. The locations of the lesions are mostly in the lower left pleural space and/or splenic bed. Confirmation can be done using scintigraphy with 99mTc tagged heat-damaged red blood cells. [6]

  3. Lung cavity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_cavity

    These congenital lesions are the most common cause of lung cavities in infants, children, and young adults. Bronchogenic cysts are due to abnormal budding of the bronchial tree. About 70% are found in the mediastinum , which is the central part of the chest where the heart is.

  4. Pneumatocele - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatocele

    A pneumatocele is a cavity in the lung parenchyma filled with air that may result from pulmonary trauma during mechanical ventilation. [1] Gas-filled, or air-filled lesions in bone are known as pneumocysts. [2] When a pneumocyst is found in a bone it is called an intraosseous pneumocyst, or a vertebral pneumocyst when found in a vertebra. [3]

  5. Diffuse alveolar damage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse_alveolar_damage

    The most important factor for treating DAD or ARDS is to treat the underlying cause of the injury to the lungs, [9] for example pneumonia or sepsis. These patients will have problems with oxygenation, meaning they will likely need a breathing tube , medications to keep them comfortable (sedative, paralytic, and/or analgesic), and a mechanical ...

  6. Lung nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_nodule

    The most important cause to exclude is any form of lung cancer, [5] including rare forms such as primary pulmonary lymphoma, carcinoid tumor and a solitary metastasis to the lung (common unrecognised primary tumor sites are melanomas, sarcomas or testicular cancer). Benign tumors in the lung include hamartomas and chondromas.

  7. Necrotizing pneumonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necrotizing_pneumonia

    Necrotizing pneumonia (NP), also known as cavitary pneumonia or cavitatory necrosis, is a rare but severe complication of lung parenchymal infection. [1] [2] [3] In necrotizing pneumonia, there is a substantial liquefaction following death of the lung tissue, which may lead to gangrene formation in the lung.

  8. Adenocarcinoma in situ of the lung - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenocarcinoma_in_situ_of...

    The treatment of choice in any patient with BAC is complete surgical resection, typically via lobectomy or pneumonectomy, with concurrent ipsilateral lymphadenectomy. [ 16 ] Non-mucinous BAC are highly associated with classical EGFR mutations, and thus are often responsive to targeted chemotherapy with erlotinib and gefitinib.

  9. Pancoast tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancoast_tumor

    The Pancoast tumor was first described by Hare in 1838 as a "tumor involving certain nerves". [2] It was not until 1924 that the tumor was described in further detail, when Henry Pancoast, a radiologist from Philadelphia, published an article in which he reported and studied many cases of apical chest tumors that all shared the same radiographic findings and associated clinical symptoms, such ...
