◽ PA view
◽ Showing homogenous white opacity occupying the Lt hemithorax with deviation of the Trachea to the opposite side and obliterations of both costophrenic and cardiophrenic angles

🟨DD
1_ Massive pleural effusion
2_ Total lung collapse
3_ Pneumectomy

🟨Most likely Dx
Lt Massive pleural effusion

🟨Next step
CT scan

◽ PA veiw
◽ Showing homogenous white opacity occupying the Rt hemithorax with deviation of the Trachea to the same side .

🟨DD
1_ Total lung collapse
2_ Pneumectomy
3_ Massive pleural effusion

🟨Most_likely_DX ?
Rt Total lung collapse
Rt Pneumectomy

كيف تفرق بيناتهم ؟
بال EXAMINATION
لو لقيت scar معناها Pneumectomy
لو مافيش scar معناها Total lung collapse

🟨Next Step?
Bronchoscopy

🟨Description
◽ Plain chest x ray

🟨DD
1_ lober pneumonia
2_ lobectomy

🟨Most likely DX
Rt Upper Lobar Pneumonia
(B/C the Trachea is centralized)💬💡

بالنسبة لل collapse و ال lobecomy تلقوها Deviated to the same side 💬💡

🟨Next step
CBC

4_ Mild pleural effusion

🟨Most likely Dx
Rt lower lobe Pulmonary infarction
(B/C👉 it's wedged shaped )💡💬

🟨Next step

🟨Description
◽ Plain chest x ray
◽ PA view
◽ Showing homogenous white opacity occupying the upper zone of the lt hemithorax with deviations of Thracea to the same side.

🟨DD
1_ Lobe collapse
2_ Lobecomy
3_ Lobar pneumonia

🟨Most likely DD
Lobe collapse
Lobectomy
(B/C the Trachea is deviated to the same side )💬💡
كيف تفرقوا بينهم ؟
👇
1_ ركزوا على ال lung lower borders في حالة ال Lobecomy حتلقوا فيه اختلاف كبير في ال level بين الجهة اليمين و اليسار.

🟨Most likely DX
Lt upper lobe collapse

🟨Next step
Bronchoscopy

هادي lt upper lobecomy

تشبه هلبا ال lt upper lobe collapse

كيف تفرقوا بينهم ؟

ركزوا في lt lung lower border و شوفوا كيف في ركبة فوق ف هادي lt upper lobecomy 💭💡

🟨DD
1_ Lobar pneumonia

3_ lobecomy

كيف تفرق بيناتهم ؟

عينك على ال apex of the heart
لو كانت واضحة / حتكون lobe collapse
او lobecomy 💡💬

لو كانت مش واضحة (ما تبانش كويس) / معناها lobar pneumonia 💡💬

🟨Most likely DX
Lt Lower Lobar pneumonia
( B/C of👉 affecement of Rt heart border shadow➡️Silhouette sign )💡💬


🟨Next step
CBC
ESR
CRP
Sputum culture

Urine culture

LFT , RFT 👉(هادو as routine investigations لانه حينحط على antibiotics )
