Abstract

The present invention provides methods of producing pleurodesis in a mammalian subject, comprising administration of a low dosage of a sclerosing agent such as silver or a salt of silver.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention provides a method of producing pleurodesis in a mammalian subject comprising administering a low dose of a sclerosing agent, such as silver or a silver salt. Background of the invention [0002] The pleural cavity and pleura play an important role in helping the lungs function optimally during breathing. Disorders affecting the pleural cavity and pleura include pleural effusions and pneumothorax. Pleural effusion involves the accumulation of fluid around the lungs. Pleural effusions can be associated with diseases such as cancer, tuberculosis, congestive heart failure, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, viral diseases, cirrhosis, coronary artery bypass surgery, gastrointestinal disease, tuberculosis, and mesothelioma. Pneumothorax occurs when air or gas is present in the pleural space. [0003] Patients with pleural disease, such as symptomatic pleural effusions or pneumothorax, are usually treated with thoracentesis to remove f...
