Article Title: | Sparing of some accessory lobes in diffuse pulmonary edema |
Abstract: | In patients with diffuse pulmonary edema we have noted a number who had sparing of accessory lobes. We postulate that this is due to a combination of two factors: diminished perfusion of the peripheral lung parenchyma and accessory fissures preventing interalveolar drift. |
