متن کاملSimultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax.
We describe 12 patients with simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax (SBSP). They represent 4 percent of patients with spontaneous pneumothorax seen at our hospital from 1971 to 1990. Five of the 12 had no underlying lung disease. In the seven remaining patients, SBSP was secondary to histiocytosis X, lymphangioleiomyomatosis, osteogenic sarcoma with pleural and pulmonary metastases, Ho...

Early diagnosis and institution of prompt therapeutic measures may be essential for survival. The great majority of cases of spontaneous pneumothorax involve one lung only and are readily treated by simple aspiration of the air, or by intercostal catheter and water seal drainage....
متن کاملGiant retinal tears after central vitrectomy.
Giant retinal breaks developed in four eyes within two months of pars plana vitrectomy. The pathogenesis and implications of this serious complication are discussed.

This paper describes bilateral tears of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) which followed photocoagulation treatment of retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) in the right eye and which occurred spontaneously in the left eye. A 66-year-old Japanese male presented with PED approximately 4 X 6 disc diameters in size in his right eye, and one disc diameter in the left eye, both in the macul...
