Summary: | A 49-year-old male presented with a giant bullous emphysematous lung mimicking a pneumothorax. The initial chest X-ray revealed that the left lung was totally collapsed. A chest tube was inserted at the emergency room, after that an iatrogenic pneumothorax developed. The HRCT showed giant bullous emphysema mimicking a pneumothorax. The pneumothorax spontaneously resolved without special treatment. His bullous lesion had remained unchanged until last follow-up. 거대 물집성 폐기종은 그 자체로 환자에게 심한 호흡곤란을 유발할 수 있는 질환이고 기흉이 동반되는 확률이 높아 이 두 상태를 감별하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 저자들은 우연히 발견된 거대 물집성 폐기종이 기흉으로 오인되어 흉관삽입술을 시행받고 이차적으로 기흉이 발생하였다가 보존적 치료로 회복된 1예를 경험하였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다. |
