Summary

comparison between the result of fluid culture and that of pleural tissue culture

Conditions

  • Pleural Tissue Culture

Interventions

PROCEDURE

pleural biopsy

To assess whether pleural tissue culture can improve the identification of causative organisms in pleural infections (using the pleural fluid culture), which can aid in selecting appropriate antimicrobial therapy and improve treatment outcomes, thus may provide valuable insights into the utility of pleural tissue culture in managing pleural infection and may guide clinicians in selecting the most appropriate diagnostic approach.
