Overview
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of pleural effusion are as follows:
- Increased serum VEGF, TNF-α and C3 levels are identified as important risk factors for presence of pleural effusions in POEMS syndrome.[1]
- Pre-existing lung damage or disease.
- Chronic smokers.
- neoplasia example lung cancer patients[2]
- alcohol abuse[2]
- Liver cirrhosis.
- Use of certain medications example dasatinib in the treatment of patients with chronic myelogenous leukaemia.[3]and immunosuppressive medicine[2]
- Occupational exposure to asbestos.
- Heart failure.
- As a complication of some surgical procedures example Nuss procedure for correction of pectus excavatum.[4]
Surgery-related risk factors include the following:[5]
- Lower preoperative oxygen saturation
- presence of postoperative infection
- smaller conduit size
- longer duration of cardiopulmonary bypass
