Why does a pneumothorax frequently lead to atelectasis?

A pneumothorax causes the lung to collapse, leading to decreased air flow into the lung and subsequent alveolar collapse, resulting in atelectasis. The air in the pleural space from the pneumothorax can also prevent proper lung expansion, further worsening the atelectasis.


Can open pneumothorax lead to tension pneumothorax?

Yes, an open pneumothorax has the potential to evolve into a tension pneumothorax if air continues to enter the pleural space but has no means of escaping, leading to increasing pressure in the chest cavity and subsequent compression of the lungs and heart. Immediate medical intervention is necessary to prevent this progression.
