Recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax after radiation therapy to the thorax
Journal Article
·
· Chest (Chicago); (United States)
Two patients who received radiation therapy to the thorax and who developed recurrent spontaneous pneumothoraces are presented. Patients with recurrent pneumothoraces secondary to radiation have not been described previously. Pleural changes secondary to radiation may contribute significantly to the complicated clinical course of these patients.
