pneumothorax
Pneumothorax refers to the loss of negative pressure in the thoracic cavity when air gains entrance to the thorax. Most common causes: Fractured Ribs Gunshot Wounds (See Photo) Iatrogenic-thoracocenthesis-biopsy Ruptured Lung Ruptured Emphysematous Bulla Ruptured Parasitic Nodule Ruptured Esophagus or Diaphragm.
PNEUMOTHORAX
PNEUMOPERITONEUM DUE TO PERFORATED PEPTIC ULCER The CXR shows free air under the right hemidiaphragm, in addition to features of hyperinflation. The possibilities include perforated peptic ulcer or GI malignancy, recent laparoscopy/laparotomy, and peritoneal dialysis. It is important to do an erect CXR for the free air to rise to the top of the abdomen. For patients with a nasogastric tube in place, instillation of 200 ml of free air before the CXR may aid the diagnosis
MEDIASTINAL EMPHYSEMA (PNEUMOMEDIASTINUM) The CXR shows free air in the mediastinum and subcutaneous tissues of the neck (Fig. 16.2). The mediastinal air could have come from disruption of the integrity of the lung, major airways, or the esophagus. A history of trauma (e.g. motor vehicle accident with blunt injury to the anterior chest wall by the steering wheel) or iatrogenic instrumentation (e.g. recent endoscopy) is important. Descending infections by gas-producing organisms from the oral cavity and neck can cause severe mediastinitis and result in a similar appearance.
KELAINAN PLEURA
1. Penebalan pleura : e.c peradangan pleuritis r.o : garis opaq linier 2. Schwarte : - penebalan pleura yg tdk teratur + perlekatan - kalsifikasi pleura r.o : opaq kehitaman
3. Efusi pleura Sedikit : +/- 100 cc sudut costophrenicus tumpul (normal lancip) Banyak : Posisi PA berdiri : tampak kesuraman homogen makin banyak membentuk garis lengkung lateral lebih tinggi. Masif : seluruh hemithorax opaq homogen Posisi AP bagian bawah dekat diafragma lebih suram

Pleuritis
Pleuritis can occur alone or in combination with pneumonia. According to exudate: Fibrinous Purulent (suppurative) Empyema Granulomatous Chronic pleuritis typically results in pleural adhesions. Etiology: Most cases are infectious, although isolation is not always possible. Fibrinous pleuritis characterized by extensive deposition of fibrin on pleural membrane
Opacified Hemithorax
Three Causes
Pneumonia
Atelectasis
Atelectasis of right lung shift of the mediastinal structures TOWARD the side of opacification
Pleural Effusion
Opacified hemithorax from large effusion Shift of heart and mediastinal structures away from side of opacified hemithorax
Large right pleural effusion - shift of the mediastinal structures AWAY from the side of opacification
Pleural Effusions
Pneumonia
Air bronchograms
The CXR shows opacities with air bronchograms involving both lung fields. This is typical of severe pneumonia as evidenced by multilobar involvement. Typical organisms include Streptococcus pneumoniae, Legionella, and gram negatives like Klebsiella and Pseudomonas aeroginosa
Pneumonia of LUL no shift of the mediastinal structures to either side; multiple air bronchograms
The black branching structures are the result of air in the bronchi, now visible because density other than air surrounds them (in this case it is inflammatory exudate from a pneumonia).
This disease is fluffy and indistinct in its margins, it is confluent and tends to be homogeneous. In both upper lobes, you can see air bronchograms. This is an alveolar (airspace) disease, in this case pulmonary edema on a noncardiogenic basis. Pulmonary edema
Airspace Disease
Abscess
The CXR shows bilateral upper lobe infiltrates with cavities, suggestive of active pulmonary tuberculosis. In general, thinwalled cavities (5 mm) tend to be infective and
PPOK
Ringan normal Lanjut diafragma datar, vol. paru ber(+) / hiperinflasi, hiperaerated, tear drop heart, retrosternalspace melebar, BVP meningkat (bronkitis kronis)
The CXR of COPD typically demonstrates evidence of air trapping. The signs are horizontality of the ribs, hyperinflated lungs (normally the right sixth rib bisects the right hemidiaphragm), hyperlucent lung fields, bilateral symmetrical attenuated pulmonary vasculature, long tubular heart, scalloping and flattening o f t h e d i a p h r a g m
Infected BE
TB
BULA PARU
The CXR shows bilateral infiltrates and air bronchograms with a perihilar distribution. The heart size is normal. There are no Kerley B lines or evidence of upper lobe venous diversion. All these are typical features of PCP. PCP is the most common life-threatening opportunistic infection in HIV disease.
There is a homogeneous density in the right upper zone and elevation of the transverse fissure. Instead of the transverse fissure being straight, there is a bulge at the medial end (Fig. 30.2), giving it an inverted S shape.

MEDIASTINUM COMPARTEMEN
Anterior: posterior to sternum anterior cardiac and tracheal borders Posterior: posterior to a line 1cm dorsal to anterior edge of vertebral bodies Middle: between the two
Anterior mediastinum
Thymic masses Lymphoma Germ cell tumors Thyroid masses Ectopic parathyroid masses Tumors of vessels, fat, mesenchymal Tu
Middle mediastinum
Metastases to middle mediastinal nodes Most metastases arise from intrathoracic tumors, primarily lung Extrathoracic- include genitourinary,melanoma, head and neck
Posterior mediastinum
Neurogenic tumors Tumors of esophagus Primary and secondary tumors of the spine
Myasthenia gravis
Myasthenia gravis is associated with thymoma
Thymoma
Older patients Rarely before 20 y 20-50% asymptomatic Symptoms: cough, dyspnea, hoarseness, chest pain Myasthenia gravis SVC syndrome A thymic mass Homogeneous soft-tissue density Oval, round, lobulated Sharply demarcated Rarely cystic Enhances homogeneously May contain calcium
Using the Silhouette Sign The mass (red arrow) silhouettes the right heart border which is to say there is no longer an edge of the right heart seen. That means the mass is (a) touching the right heart border (the mass is anterior) and (b) the mass is the same density as the heart (fluid or soft tissue density). The mass is a thymoma.
Lymphoma - CT
Nodes greater than 1cm in diameter - enlarged on CT , MRI Multiple nodes smaller than 1cm suspicious Enlarged nodes- discrete or fuse to form a single larger mass Minor enhancement Low density areas Calcifications prior to therapy rare commoner in more aggressive subtypes seen occasionally following therapy

Benign localized form Malignant diffuse form Related to asbestos exposure Rarely calcified DDx from mets and lymphoma Pleural is more commonly involved with mets
Fluid in the walls of the bronchi make them visible and produce numerous doughnut densities throughout the periphery of the lung.
