Peripheral right upper lobe collapse can be identified on chest radiography. The elevated major fissure appears as a sharp medial edge to the opacity, confirmed by CT correlation.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Thoracic Imaging
  • Pulmonary Medicine

Background:

  • Peripheral lung collapse can present with subtle radiographic findings.
  • Accurate interpretation of chest radiography is crucial for diagnosing lung collapse.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the radiographic and CT findings of peripheral right upper lobe collapse.
  • To highlight the significance of the elevated major fissure sign.

Main Methods:

  • Case presentation of peripheral right upper lobe collapse.
  • Radiographic interpretation of chest X-ray.
  • Computed Tomography (CT) correlation.

Main Results:

  • Chest radiography revealed a peripheral opacity in the right upper lobe.

  • The opacity had a sharp medial edge.
  • CT correlation confirmed the opacity as a collapsed right upper lobe and identified the elevated major fissure.

    • Conclusions:

    • The elevated major fissure is a key indicator of peripheral right upper lobe collapse on chest radiography.
    • CT imaging provides definitive correlation for this condition.
