Overview
The majority of patients with atelectasis are asymptomatic. Common symptoms of atelectasis include breathlessness, chest pain, and cyanosis. Symptoms in patients with atelectasis depend upon rapidity of bronchial occlusion, lung area affected and presence of any overlying infection.
History and Symptoms
- The majority of patients with atelectasis are asymptomatic. Symptoms in patients with atelectasis depend upon rapidity of bronchial occlusion, lung area affected and presence of any overlying infection.
- Symptoms of atelectasis include chest pain, sudden onset breathlessness and cyanosis.
History
Patients with atelectasis may have a positive history of:
- Abdominal procedures
- Thoracic procedures
- Foreign body aspiration
- Bronchopulmonary dysplasia
- Hyaline membrane disease
- Mechanical ventilation[1]
- Cystic fibrosis: failure to thrive, steatorrhea[2]
- Recurrent aspiration
- Frequent vomiting
- GERD
- Asthma[3]
- Neuromuscular diseases such as Werdnig–Hoffman disease[4]
- Bronchial tumors such as bronchial carcinoid tumors[5]
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of atelectasis include:[6]
Less Common Symptoms
Less common symptoms of atelectasis include:
