What is Pleural Effusion?

Pleural effusion occurs when excess fluid builds up between the layers of tissue lining the lungs and chest cavity, leading to breathing difficulties and chest discomfort.

Common Causes of Pleural Effusion

Our Approach to Treating Pleural Effusion

Treatment is aimed at addressing the underlying cause and removing the excess fluid. Procedures like thoracentesis, medications, and in some cases, pleurodesis or surgery are employed to relieve symptoms and prevent recurrence.
