An unusual case of rounded atelectasis

G Geremia and RA Mintzer

An unusual case of rounded atelectasis (RA) is described. This entity is likely to develop as a consequence of asbestos-induced pleural disease. The sine qua non of RA is a curvilinear tail extending from the inferior medial surface of a peripheral mass. Recognition of this "comet tail" prevents the necessity for surgery.
