Intrapleural Tenecteplase Therapy in Treatment of Loculated Parapneumonic Pleural Effusions and Empyema

Intrapleural Tenecteplase Therapy in Treatment of Loculated Parapneumonic Pleural Effusions and Empyema

Background: Thoracic empyema (TE) and loculated parapneumonic effusions (CPE) cause considerable morbidity and mortality, with an estimated case-fatality rate of 15%. Intrapleural administration of recombinant tissue plasminogen activators (r-TPA) such as tenecteplase (TNKase) has been recently empl...
