我所于1953～1980年所收治507例晚期血吸虫病肝硬化腹水患者,并排除其他引起腹水的可能病因而确诊者,均经X线胸透检查,其中伴胸水者10例(1.97％)均为单侧性,右侧6例,左侧4例。在住院期间该10例都未查见其他可发生胸水的病因。故可确认这10例是与晚期血吸虫病所引起的腹水直接相关。 I was diagnosed in 507 cases of advanced ascites due to schistosomiasis cirrhosis from 1953 to 1980, and excluded from other possible causes of ascites, were examined by X-ray chest X-ray, of which 10 cases (1.97%) with pleural effusion were Unilateral, right 6 cases, left 4 cases. During the hospitalization of the 10 cases were not found in other causes of pleural effusion. It can be confirmed that these 10 cases are directly related to ascites caused by advanced schistosomiasis.
