Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Tension hydrothorax is a life-threatening condition caused by a massive buildup of fluid in the pleural space, compressing the mediastinum and compromising cardiac output. It causes obstructive shock and can lead to cardiac arrest. Early detection and rapid intervention are essential to prevent cardiorespiratory collapse.
CASE SERIES: This is a case series of three patients who presented with a tension hydrothorax and signs of hemodynamic instability. Initial imaging showed a complete white-out of the chest with a mediastinal shift, which required an emergent chest tube thoracostomy.
CONCLUSION: Although decompressive interventions are common, courses and awareness can minimize potential complications when managing emergency conditions such as tension hydrothorax, which remains a medical challenge.
