A common presentation of Contarini syndrome in our setting is the coexistence of pleural tuberculosis and hepatic hydrothorax. This case report illustrates this unique combination.

[Erick Rendón Ramírez @ErickRendonMD]

@YCGaryLee @accpchest @Nickmaskell1 Agree with Gary Lee — no strong data on optimal drain size in secondary pneumothorax.
That said, we tend to favor large-bore tubes (>14 Fr) in selected cases:
• persistent air leak
• significant symptoms with poor pulmonary reserve
• mechanical ventilation

@JoseMPorcel (@harnaulleida) @Sociedad_SEMI honored for his contribution to Mexican #respiratory community at @SMNYCT Congress at #Cancun. Congrats!

We want it to be fun while thought provocative. The Pleural sessions certainly achieved that.

Our pleural and Thoracic ultrasound Unit found that Early pleural effusion is associated with severity and mortality

[Erick Rendón Ramírez @ErickRendonMD]

Quick lung ultrasound (2 min) detects volume overload better than dialysis labs. Thanks to Dr. Porcel for his invaluable mentorship.

Pleural Effusion Identified by Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) in Septic Shock: Impact on Clinical Outcomes https://t.co/H3X2EKDmCU via @POCUSjournal

[Erick Rendón Ramírez @ErickRendonMD]

The detection of pleural effusion using ultrasound is associated with higher rates of hospitalization, mechanical ventilation, and mortality, particularly in cases with larger effusion volumes. Many thanks to all the researchers involved.

Pleural effusions identified by thoracic ultrasound predict poor quality of life in patients with acute decompensated heart failure - Heart & Lung: The Journal of Cardiopulmonary and Acute Care https://t.co/PnU8rc8M4b

[Erick Rendón Ramírez @ErickRendonMD]

Pleural effusion detected by thoracic ultrasound is one of the best predictors of quality of life in patients with heart failure. Thanks to my mentor, Dr. Porcel, for this collaboration #pleuraleffusion #POCUS

We delivered the pleuropulmonary ultrasound workshop to 200 Mexican pulmonologists at Pulmomeeting 2024, demonstrating the power of the most game-changing diagnostic tool in decades.

[José Manuel Porcel Pérez @JoseMPorcel]

@ErickRendonMD @PerlaRcp @uanl Well deserved. A brilliant pulmonologist and well recognized expert in pleural diseases. I honored to be considered your teacher

[Erick Rendón Ramírez @ErickRendonMD]

It is a privilege to be part of the national system of researchers in my country. I am grateful to my institution HU UANL, to my wife, Dra. Perla Colunga, the most brilliant researcher in the world, and to my mentor in pleural disease, Dr. Porcel

[Y C Gary Lee @YCGaryLee]

New @ERSpublications with @JoseMPorcel @EuroRespSoc. Big picture of pleural advances all on minimising intervention. IPC (recurrent effusion); tPA/DNase (infection); conservative PneumoThx Rx; stop surgery (mesothelioma) etc. Keep going! https://t.co/iDooOugIMV @PleuralPOCUS
