It is characterized by a massive transudation of a protein-rich fluid from the vascular compartment into the peritoneal, pleural, or, to a lesser extent, pericardial cavities. |
The effusion is not so much due to exudation as to a transudation of serum with which micrococci are commingled. |
The constant removal of the transudation from the outer side results from the pressure being less in this position. |
The importance of these experiments with reference to the causes of the transudation of fluid from the blood is obvious. |
Pulmonary complications, such as pleural effusion, result from retroperitoneal transudation of fluid from the swollen pancreas. |
Urticarial lesions are the result of capillary vasodilation followed by transudation of fluid into the superficial dermis. |
