Title: Dextroposition of the left lower lobe after heart-lung transplantation. Author: Gevenois PA, Antoine M, Yernault JC, Leclerc JL, Estenne M. Journal: Chest; 1993 Jun; 103(6):1910-2. PubMed ID: 8404132. Abstract: Immediately after heart-lung transplantation for cystic fibrosis, a patient had development of a right lower lobe retrocardiac density that persisted on all postoperative chest radiographs. A computed tomographic examination of the thorax performed 3 weeks after surgery showed that there was partial collapse of the left lower lobe in the right hemithorax. The patient required a posterolateral thoracotomy for cure.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
