Atelektasis
Kolapsnya atau hilangnya volume paru
Dapat terjadi pada seluruh lapang paru, lobus,
segmen, dan subsegmental
Terdapat 5 mekanisme atelektasis :
1) (Post) obstructive
2-5) Non-obstructive typically due to loss of contact
between parietal and visceral pleura.

mekanisme terjadinya atelektasis dan gambaran
radiologisnya ( X-ray Finding )
XR Findings in Atelectasis
Direct:
Displacement of fissures
Increased opacification of airless lobe
Crowded air bronchograms (non-obstructive only) or
vessels
Indirect:
Typical
findings
of
atelectasis
in
this
patient include:
1) Hazy opacity in left
upper
lung
(direct
sign)
2) Left tracheal shift
(indirect sign)
3) Loss of left cardiac
silhouette
(indirect
sign)
Lobar Collapse
Lateral View
Lateral View
Lateral view:
The arrows point to
the major and minor
fissures which are
parallel
to
each
other.
The
atelectatic
middle
lobe is the opacity
between
the
fissures. Notice that
it projects over the
cardiac silhouette.
lower
lobe
retracts
RLL Atelectasis:
Triangular
opacity
in
right
lower
hemithorax.
The
lateral border is the
major fissure (not
normally seen on
frontal view). Right
hilum is displaced
caudally
and
partially obscured.
The hyperexpanded
RML outlines the
cardiac border and
right
hemidiaphragm.
Left
upper
lobe
atelectasis:
Opacity
contiguous to the aortic
arch. The mediastinum
is shifted toward the left
hemithorax,
which
is
small in comparison to
the
right.
The
main
pulmonary trunk and the
left pulmonary artery
are obliterated.
Left
upper
lobe
atelectasis in patient
with
incomplete
major fissure: There
is
an
ill-defined
opacity in the left
half of the left upper
thorax. The trachea
is deviated left and
the left hilum is
retracted superiorly.
Vascular branches to
the left lower lobe
superior
segment
form an array of
linear and tubular
opacities. The arrow
shows
a
vertical
lucency
separating
the aortic arch from
the vertical margin
of the collapsed lobe
(Luftsichel).
LLL Atelectasis:
Notice the wedge
shaped
opacity
behind the cardiac
silhouette.
The
border is formed by
the major fissure
(arrow). The left
hilum is partially
obscured
and
displaced caudally.
The left upper lobe
is
hyperexpanded
accounting for the
increased lucency in
the left hemithorax.
Mechanisms of
Atelectasis
Post-obstructive
atelectasis
of
RLL: The major
fissure is visible
as it has rotated
into view. There
are
no
air
bronchograms
seen within the
atelectatic region
of
lung.
The
patient
is
intubated.
The
obstruction
is
likely
due
to
mucous plugging.
Non-obstructive
Atelectasis
1) Passive
2) Compressive
3) Cicatrization
4) Adhesive
In these forms of atelectasis secretions are able
drain up the bronchial tree. Because there is
no
obstruction,
bronchoscopy
is
not
therapeutic.
Passive atelectasis:
Notice the crowded
air
bronchograms
(arrows)
in
the
setting of a left
pleural effusion. Air
bronchograms
are
not present in postobstructive
atelectasis.
Compressive Atelectasis
Due to external compression of lung
May be caused by loculated collection of
pleural fluid or by masses in chest wall,
pleura, or parenchyma.
Similar to relaxation atelectasis but collapse
is local rather than generalized.
Compressive
atelectasis: Chest
x-ray showing a
giant
bulla
occupying more
than two thirds
of
the
right
hemithorax and
compressing the
underlying
lung
upward
and
toward
the
mediastinum.
Crowded
air
bronchograms
can
be
seen
(arrows).
Adhesive Atelectasis
Caused by adherence of the alveolar wall
surfaces in the setting of surfactant
deficiency (e.g., hyaline membrane disease)
Surfactant has phospholipid dipalmitoyl
phosphatidylcholine, which prevents lung
collapse by reducing the surface tension of
the alveoli
Lack of surfactant or inactive surfactant
cause alveolar instability and collapse
Adhesive atelectasis

infant
with
hyaline membrane
disease:
CXR

bilateral
ground-glass
appearance of the
lungs (atelectasis)
and

bronchograms
standing
(red
arrow) out against
the
collapsed
parenchyma.
Cicatrization Atelectasis
Secondary to fibrosis (scarring) of lung
parenchyma with subseqent lack of
expansion
Etiologies include granulomatous disease
(often occurs in sarcoid, fungal, and chronic
TB), necrotizing pneumonia, and radiation.
Cicatrization
atelectasis:
Lung
destruction
in patient
with chronic
pulmonary
tuberculosis.
