CTICasesSpontaneous Pneumothorax with Giant Bullous Emphysema
Imaging findings
A patient with known "vanishing lung syndrome" (giant bullae) developed a discrete pneumothorax, clearly visible as a white line separate from the bulla walls.
Key takeaways
Radiographic differentiation between a giant bulla and a pneumothorax is critical; the presence of a distinct pleural line confirms a pneumothorax.
