  • Title: Malignant pleural mesothelioma diagnosed after chest trauma.
    Author: Machi J, Bekoe S, Latenser BA.
    Journal: Am Surg; 1997 Nov; 63(11):1011-3. PubMed ID: 9358793.
    Abstract:
    Two patients who presented with persistent pulmonary symptoms after chest trauma and were diagnosed to have malignant pleural mesothelioma are described. The symptoms, more than expected from trauma, prompted earlier diagnosis of this underlying disease. The possibility of unknown preexisting diseases should always be considered in posttraumatic patients with unusual presentations.
