Overview
Natural History
Complications
Complications of pleural effusion can result from the disease itself or from complication of treatment procedure.
- Pleural fluid can be secondarily infected and may turn into an abscess or empyema, which will need to be drained with a chest tube.[1][2]
- Pneumothorax can be a complication of thoracentesis procedure.[3][4][5][6]
- Reexpansion pulmonary edema as a complication of therapeutic thoracentesis[7][8]
- Postcardiac injury syndrome (PCIS)[9][10][11]
- A general term for fever and pleuropericardial disease days or months after cardiac injury (myocardial infarction or surgery).
- Typically present two to three weeks post op.
- Chest pain
- Pericardial rub
- Fever
- Leukocytosis
- Elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)
- Variable combinations of pulmonary effusions and infiltrates.
Prognosis
The expected outcome depends upon the underlying disease.
