                                 FINAL REPORT
 REASON FOR EXAMINATION:  Suspected hemothorax.
 
 AP radiograph of the chest was compared to .
 
 The Dobbhoff tube has been inserted, currently following appropriate course.
 
 The left perihilar mass noted on the prior study is now associated with
 widespread opacities surrounding it, which may reflect bleeding or aspiration
 or interval development of infection.  Bilateral pleural effusions have
 developed in the interim, small.  No change in the right rib fractures is
 demonstrated, better assessed on the current study.  Retrocardiac atelectasis
 has progressed in the interim.
 
 Given the multiple attempts to adjust the Dobbhoff tube, the bibasilar
 opacities and the left perihilar opacity may reflect aspiration, but
 infectious process cannot be excluded and should be closely followed.
