PA and lateral chest views have been obtained with patient in upright position. There is mild cardiac enlargement.

Thoracic aorta is unremarkable and no evidence of local contour abnormalities is present. The pulmonary vasculature is not congested. No evidence for acute pneumonic infiltrates anywhere in the lungs. On the other hand, there is evidence of pleural thickenings, mostly on the right lung base and along the right lateral chest wall, indicative of old pleural scar formations. Minor scar formations exist also on the left base, but again no evidence of any acute infiltrate in the parenchyma is observed. The lateral and posterior pleural sinuses are free from any fluid accumulation. There is no pneumothorax in the apical area on the frontal view. Skeletal structures demonstrate an accentuated kyphotic curvature in the thoracic spine with moderate degree of degenerative changes in the form of bridging osteophytic reactions, mostly anteriorly to the vertebral bodies. Remarkable is also rather large depth diameter of the thorax. Our records do not include a previous chest examination available for comparison.
