Iatrogenic pneumothorax
Introduction: Iatrogenic pneumothorax
An adverse condition caused by treatment by any health professional where a leak in the lung causes air to accumulate in the space around the lung (pleural cavity). This prevents the lung from expanding fully and hence a partial lung collapse occurs. For example, a doctor may accidentally puncture the lung during a surgical operation.
