Common pleural effusions in children
Clin Chest Med.
1998 Jun.
Abstract
The evaluation of pleural effusions in children differ from that of the adult in cause, symptom presentation, character of the fluid, techniques for diagnosis, treatment or management, and prognosis. These similarities and differences are reviewed with emphasis on the treatment of empyema.
