Question

_____________________________Accumulation of air in the pleural space.

Occur spontaneously, as a complication of preexisting lung disease, trauma, or an iatrogenic cause.
Pressure in the pleaural space is normally negative in relation to the atmosperic pressure.
Negative pressure is vital to the breathing process
When either the visceral or parietal pleura is breached, air enters the pleural space, equalizing this pressure. Lung expansion is impaired, and the natural recoil tendency of the lung causes it to collapse to a greater or lesser extent, depending on the size and rapidity of air accumulation

Answer 1

Pneumothorax.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Pneumothorax is caused when there is an accumulation of air in the pleural space or around our lungs.

• Pneumotorax is the condition when a lung is collapsed.
• It happens when air enters in a space which is present between our lung and chest wall.
• When there's an open injury in your chest wall or rupture in your lung tissue, air enters into our lungs.
• This disrupts the pressure, which keeps our lung inflated.

• The reason of injured or ruptured chest or lung wall can be due to lung disease or due to the injury by an accident or sport.
