UPLOADS FOR REVIEW - Post-Op Hemothorax
Caption
Male ICU patient developed respiratory failure and opacified L hemithorax day 2 post-op from TEVAR for Type B aortic dissection. Longitudinal view from L posterior axillary line showed hemothorax with a large intrapleural blood clot and small medial sliver of atelectatic lung. Paradoxical movement with inspiration and absence of air bronchograms assist in distinguishing clot from lung parenchyma. Samuel Eglin, MD
