We present a 47-years-old man with spontaneous pneumothorax secondary to non-small cell lung cancer
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Spontaneous pneumothorax are usually caused by subpleural apical bleps but may also be secondary to underlying pulmonary pathology such as emphysema, tuberculosis, eosinophilic granuloma and rarely lung neoplasm (secondary to metastasis to the lung and primary lung cancer).
📊
Key Findings & Data:Spontaneous pneumothorax are usually caused by subpleural apical bleps but may also be secondary to underlying pulmonary pathology such as emphysema, tuberculosis, eosinophilic granuloma and rarely lung neoplasm (secondary to metastasis to the lung and primary lung cancer).

Abstract
Spontaneous pneumothorax are usually caused by subpleural apical bleps but may also be secondary to underlying pulmonary pathology such as emphysema, tuberculosis, eosinophilic granuloma and rarely lung neoplasm (secondary to metastasis to the lung and primary lung cancer). We present a 47-years-old man with spontaneous pneumothorax secondary to non-small cell lung cancer
Özet
Spontan pnömotoraks en sık apikal bölgedeki bleplerin rüptürü sonucu gelişmesine rağmen bazen altta yattan ikincil bir akciğer hastalığına (amfizem, tüberküloz, eozinofilik granülom ve nadiren de akciğer karsinomuna) bağlı gelişebilir. Bu çalışmamızda küçük hücre dışı akciğer karsinomuna ikincil gelişen spontan pnömotorakslı 47 yaşındaki erkek olgumuzu sunduk.
