Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax: Looking Beyond the Usual

Abstract

Primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) refers to a pneumothorax that occurs in patients without underlying pulmonary disease. Emergency physicians are often the first group of health care providers for patients presenting with a PSP. The currently recommended course of management for these patients involves conservative management either with observation (for small pneumothoraces) or simple aspiration/small bore chest tube placement (for larger/more symptomatic pneumothoraces).
