摘要

A rare case of bilateral pneumothorax in a 54-year-old woman with advanced breast cancerassociated with lung and pleural metastases is presented. The patient was admitted to ourhospital complaining of unexpected severe dyspnea. A chest X-ray showed bilateral pneumothoraxassociated with multiple lung metastases and pleural effusions, followed byimmediate pleural drainage. Although air leak and effusions of the right lung were wellcontrolled by the conservative management, massive air leaks of the left lung had continuedfor 40 days. Because of patient's poor general status a surgical closure of the leaking sitewas selected using video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery techniques. Thoracoscopy revealeda ruptured bulla in the lower lobe (S6), thus, followed by a successful bullectomy with astapling device. We speculate that multiple pleural metastasis may disturb the normalrepair mechanism of the lung tissue and cause prolonged persistent air leaks.
