Abstract: | Learning objectives: Lobar collapse is frequently missed on chest radiographs, and yet the appearances are quite characteristic once they are known and understood. We present typical radiographic examples of the various types of lobar collapse. Background: Lobar collapse usually occurs as a result of loss of aeration caused by proximal bronchial obstruction. Patient's age and clinical presentation may help in narrowing the differential from a multitude of underlying causes. |
