Pleural Fibrin Body Simulating Cardiac Aneurysm: Report of a Case

PHILIP MORGENSTERN M.D.1

1 The Department of Medicine and Surgery, Veterans Administration, Oteen, North Carolina.

A case is reported in which a large fibrin body lodged in the left pleural space in such a position as to simulate an aneurysm of the apex of the heart on the postero-anterior film of the chest. Fluoroscopy and oblique projection, together with comparison of pre-pneumothorax roentgenogram revealed the true nature of the condition.
