Chapter 16 Lung Abscess EDA PM AFC C RB B A Figure 16-1. Lung abscess. A, Cross-sectional view of lung abscess. AFC, Air-fluid cavity; RB, ruptured bronchus (and drainage of the liquified contents of the cavity); EDA, early development of abscess; PM, pyogenic membrane. Consolidation (B) and excessive bronchial secretions (C) are common secondary anatomic alterations of the lungs. Slide 1 Copyright © 2006 by Mosby, Inc.

Overview of the Cardiopulmonary Clinical Manifestations Associated with LUNG ABSCESS The following clinical manifestations result from the pathophysiologic mechanisms caused (or activated) by Alveolar Consolidation (see Figure 9-8), and when the abscess is draining, by Excessive Bronchial Secretions (see Figure 9-8)—the major anatomic alterations of the lungs associated with chronic bronchitis (see Figure 16-1).

Figure 2-11. A short, dull, or flat percussion note is typically produced over areas of alveolar consolidation. Slide 10 Copyright © 2006 by Mosby, Inc. Figure 2-16.
