What are the causes of a small amount of pleural effusion

summary

With the continuous progress of society, the incidence rate of pleural effusion is also gradually increasing. We all know the concept of pleural effusion, but we do not fully understand the harm caused by pleural effusion. The emergence of pleural effusion, we need early treatment. In the life of early prevention. Why does a small amount of pleural effusion appear? Let's take a look at the following.

What are the causes of a small amount of pleural effusion

First: the appearance of a small amount of pleural effusion is directly related to the increase of hydrostatic pressure in the pleural capillary. What we play is that the increase of hydrostatic pressure will mainly promote the formation of pleural effusion, such as congestive heart failure, or the increase of hydrostatic pressure in the pulmonary circulation will directly cause pleural effusion.

Second: when nephrotic syndrome occurs, protein loss, liver cirrhosis and chronic infection will occur, and the synthesis of these proteins will decrease, causing the occurrence of these disorders, leading to the decrease of plasma colloid osmotic pressure, which will directly cause pleural effusion.

Third: increased permeability of pleural capillaries, when there is pleural inflammation or the adjacent pleural tissues and organs are infected, as well as the emergence of pulmonary infarction or systemic diseases, it will directly cause certain harm to the chest, and the cellular protein and liquid in the capillaries will flow into the chest.

matters needing attention

There is a small amount of pleural effusion we also need to pay attention to, should be as soon as possible to check, timely understanding of the treatment method.
