Resumen
Se estudia el valor de los iones cobre y hierro en el líquido pleural de distintas etiologías: insuficiencia cardiaca, neoplásico, tuberculoso e infeccioso inespecífico.
Se comprueba ascenso, estadísticamente significativo, del cobre en el líquido de etiología tuberculosa. El hierro se demuestra poco variable en los cuatro tipos etiológicos.
Summary
The authors study the value of copper and iron ions in pleural liquid of different etiologies: cardiac insufficiency, neoplastic, tuberculous and unspecific infectious.
The authors verify the statistically significant increase of copper in the liquid of tuberculous etiology. Iron is showed to be only slightly variable in the four etiological types.
