Contrast CT demonstrated ruptured type B aortic dissection with massive right
hemothorax [Figure 1].
Chest trauma causing
hemothorax, lung contusion, subpulmonic collection, or diaphragmatic rupture may also mimic the situation.
There is no correlation between the size/number of lesions and either pneumothorax or
hemothorax, nor pain.
No pleural effusion,
hemothorax, and hemoptysis occurred.
This is a case of
hemothorax due to ruptured mycotic aneurysms of the intercostal arteries in a 40-year-old male with MRSA IE.

Two deaths possibly associated with postnatally acquired Zika virus disease have been reported among children, including a Brazilian girl aged 16 years with possible hemorrhage and a Colombian girl aged 15 years with sickle cell disease who developed severe acute respiratory distress syndrome,
hemothorax, and splenic sequestration.
Compressing of the airway by a hematoma, as well as
hemothorax, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, stroke, and even death, has been well-described.[sup][1] Percutaneous interventional management of inadvertent arterial catheterization during central venous access has been recognized as the first-line treatment.
This edition has two new chapters, on developing safety policies for organized sports and sports law; new National Athletic Trainers' Association positioning statements in the chapters on heat illness, cervical spine injuries, lightning, and brain injuries; updated epidemiological data; revised appendices and Sudden Athlete Collapse Treatment Algorithms; and an expanded chapter on traumatic injuries to include more on
hemothorax, pulmonary embolism, and returning athletes who have sustained abdominal injuries.
Chest radiograph and ultrasound showed an extensive right-side
hemothorax. The result of a Zika virus-specific real-time RT-PCR was positive (Table).
