Abstract:
Pleural effusion is a common clinical pleural disease, and it is also an accompanying manifestation of many diseases. The characteristics and etiological diagnosis of pleural effusion have always been the focus of clinical attention. Pleural effusion is divided into exudate and exudative effusion, and tuberculous pleural effusion and malignant pleural effusion are more common in exudative pleural effusion. Its characteristics and the selection of appropriate diagnostic methods are crucial to the treatment and prognosis of patients. With the rapid development of experimental technology and molecular biology, some new experimental techniques and experimental indicators have emerged. In this review, the characteristics of tuberculous pleural effusion and malignant pleural effusion and the research progress of its differential diagnosis methods were reviewed.
