Abstract

A traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst (TPP) is an uncommon lung lesion that can occur due to blunt chest trauma. This condition is usually harmless and doesn't require medical treatment, but in rare cases, it is complicated by rupture of the lesion and hemothorax. We present the case of a 43-year-old man who fell from a height and suffered chest trauma. Imaging revealed a mass-like lesion and hemothorax, but after ruling out other diagnoses, he was diagnosed with complicated traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst. Over six months, the mass-like lesion shrank and disappeared entirely without any remaining scars. Proper diagnosis and differentiation from other lung lesions are essential in cases of TPP. With conservative management and regular follow-up, the prognosis is generally reasonable.

并发外伤性肺假性囊肿1例

创伤性肺假性囊肿（TPP）是一种罕见的肺部病变，可发生在钝性胸部创伤。这种情况通常是无害的，不需要药物治疗，但在极少数情况下，它会因病变破裂和血胸而复杂化。我们提出的情况下，43岁的男子谁从高处坠落，并遭受胸部创伤。影像学显示肿块样病变和血胸，但在排除其他诊断后，他被诊断为复杂的创伤性肺假性囊肿。六个月后，肿块样病变缩小并完全消失，没有留下任何疤痕。正确的诊断和与其他肺部病变的鉴别对于跨太平洋肺炎至关重要。经保守治疗和定期随访，预后一般合理。
