Pleural Effusion
Mini Thoracoscopy vs Semirigid Thoracoscopy in Exudative Pleural Effusions
Undiagnosed pleural effusion is a diagnostic dilemma especially in exudative pleural effusions (EPE). 20-40 % are unable to be attributed to a specific diagnosis, even after thoracentesis and closed pleural biopsy.
