Add educational activity to MyCPD
A 62‐year-old man is undergoing a CT‐guided core biopsy of a lung nodule when he develops an iatrogenic pneumothorax. After admission to the Royal Adelaide hospital he has ongoing dyspnoea, oxygen desaturation, and chest pain not helped by a preexisting Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The treatment for the patient’s symptoms doesn’t immediately go to plan but his care team apply a combination of recent technologies to bring the condition under control. Pomegranate [Case Reports] have been developed to help Trainees rehearse diagnostic problem solving and case presentation.
