Czech term or phrase: plášťový spontanní pneumothorax
I know what a spontaneous pneumothorax is, but plášťový is a first for me - the only thing I can think of is that it is some kind of a lateral spont. PNO, but not sure whether it is unilateral/bilateral or contra-lateral. Does anybody know? Cheers

English translation:partial spontaneous pneumothorax
Explanation:
It seems that plášťový = parciální.

Pneumotorax
Za parciální, plášťový PNO se pokládá přítomnost < 20 % vzduchu v hemitoraxu. Může být klinicky němý nebo vyvolává jen mírnou dušnost. Rozsáhlý PNO je pokládán za velmi závažnou komplikaci. Projeví se náhlou
bolestí na hrudníku vystřelující do ramene a dušností.
