pleural retraction, pleural tag Explanation: Is the context lung carcinoma? Then the following references may be helpful. They actually use various terms for the effects of tumors abutting the pleural surface, including pleural tag, pleural retraction, pleural shift, tumor pushes/pulls on pleura... Hopefully, your text contains some information to choose the most appropriate one. Oncologic Imaging: Essentials of Reporting Common Cancers https://books.google.de › books Hedvig Hricak, Janet E. Husband, David M. Panicek - 2007 - Medical subcentimeter-sized adenocarcinomas; the first two tumors can range from showing ... to pleura (chest wall or mediastinum) if close-abutting with a pleural tag or involvement Chest wall or mediastinal invasion Distance of tumor from carina if in ... Pleural signs were categorized into five types of non-interlobar fissure pleura and four types of interlobar fissure pleura. For non-interlobar fissure pleura (Group A): type I, one or more linear pleural tags without pleural thickened; type II, one or more linear pleural tags with soft tissue components at the pleural end; type III, one or more bold-wire pleural tags with soft tissue components at the pleural end; type IV, tumor abutting the pleura; type V, without pleural abnormality. For interlobar fissure pleura (Group B): type I, tumor pulls pleura with pleural shift; type II, one or more linear pleural tags without pleural shift; type III, tumor pushes pleura; type IV, without pleural abnormality. ... A new parameter, called pleural indentation fraction (PIF), was defined as the ratio of pleural shift distance to the projected length of involved pleura to quantitatively evaluate the level of pleural shift. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6105937/ Illustrations showed the difficulty of preoperative prediction of visceral pleural invasion in lung cancer patients. (A) The preoperative CT scan reported a left upper lobe lung tumor with pleural retraction and suspicious pleural invasion. Post-operative orcein staining confirmed penetration of the elastic layer of the visceral pleura (PL1); (B) the preoperative CT scan revealed a spiculated enhancing tumor at the left apical lung with pleural tags. http://atm.amegroups.com/article/view/23376/html |

lung fissure Explanation: In fact "attraction scissure" seems to refer to the lung fissure, ie the fissures that separate the right and left lungs into lobes https://radiopaedia.org/articles/lung-fissures Lung fissures are a double-fold of visceral pleura that either completely or incompletely invaginate lung parenchyma to form the lung lobes. Each lung has an oblique fissure separating the upper lobes from the lower lobes and the right lung has a horizontal fissure that separates the right upper lobe from the middle lobe. There are numerous accessory fissures that are common anatomical variants. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 8 hrs (2019-10-06 19:28:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- scissure = fissure https://www.wordreference.com/fren/scissure here attraction pleurale = scissure file:///C:/Users/sdavi/Desktop/MIA_item5_imagerie_masses_nodules.pdf Multiple references to scissure including L’attraction pleurale ( scissure ) est plus évocatrice -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 8 hrs (2019-10-06 19:32:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- so here "opposite/adjacent to the lung fissure" |
