HIDE
PrevNext

0:00

So here is a nice Corona reformation,

0:03

which shows basal predominant diffuse cystic lung disease.

0:06

As you could see, para bronchovascular,

0:08

some areas showing this air cuff like morphology, like

0:11

for example in here within the right lower lobe.

0:15

So you know what I'm sending you up for right now.

0:17

If we look in the para mediastinal portions of the lungs,

0:21

we see these clustered cysts.

0:23

Beautiful clustered cyst here.

0:25

And so this is a case of Bertol Debase syndrome.

0:27

This patient also has

0:29

what looks like is a chronic LO related right

0:32

sided pneumothorax as well.

0:33

So down here and also extending into the fissure there.

0:36

And so as I alluded to

0:37

before, anybody with diffuse cystic lung disease,

0:40

they can certainly develop PNE authorities

0:43

and sometimes when they heal, they can heal, um, chronically

0:46

and they can ate.
