Spanish term

Condensación pulmonar derecha extensa que respeta áreas anteriores

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general)
Pruebas complementarias:

- Condensación pulmonar derecha extensa que respeta áreas anteriores de LSD y LM.

Need to check whether it is pulmonary condensation - receives hits on Google, although mainly articles translated from Spanish. Also a bit unsure as to how 'respeta' should be dealt with here.


Many thanks

Irina Yes - I see what you mean. Thanks again!

Adam,
I 'm almost sure that areas anteriores refers to anatomically anterior areas (considering nomina anatomica where anterior is "the front part of the body" and posterior is "the back "...)

extensive pulmonary consolidation in the right lower lobe

/anterior upper and middle lobes are clear
I would prefer the term consolidation (check definition in Stedman's).
Hope this is useful!

In the following example, the consolidation is in the right upper lobe:

Sorry...of the right lung...
I believe that "respeta" refers to the areas that are not infected, that is, are clear (in the x-ray, and probably to percussion and auscultation)

So, it should be "extensive pulmonary consolidation of the right lung with clear anterior upper and middle right lobes"
Note from asker:
Hi Irina. This certainly hopes. I hadn't thought of consolidation. Draft now: Extensive pulmonary consolidation of the right lung covering the previously clear areas of the right upper lobe (RUL) and middle lobe (ML).
