A member asked:
What is minimal pleural effusion? pleurodiaphragmatic adhesion left.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Explained below: There is a collection of fluid in an estimated small amount around your lung. On the left there is most likely a focal area of scar connecting the lining of the lung called the pleura with the diaphragm. Did you have an empyema? An infection in the pleural space and/or a chest tube placed?
