A pleural effusion is an unusual buildup of fluid surrounding the lung.
Even though your pleural effusion may need to be drained, the doctor will probably address the underlying medical problem that contributed to it
Some pleural effusion patients
experience no symptoms, and the illness is only identified on a chest x-ray that is taken for another cause.
