Is pleural effusion normal three months after lung cancer surgery

Pleural effusion is usually abnormal three months after lung cancer surgery.

Pleural effusion is easy to be damaged during lung cancer surgery, resulting in pleural effusion. However, it usually appears early after surgery and will be gradually absorbed later. If pleural effusion occurs three months after lung cancer surgery, it is generally related to pathological factors such as lung infection and recurrence. It is an abnormal phenomenon and requires timely use of drugs and surgery to inhibit inflammation and tumor development.

It is recommended that patients with pleural effusion after lung cancer surgery should see a doctor as soon as possible to clarify the cause and actively intervene to prevent delaying the disease.
