“…[ 1 2 ] The causes of UPE can be categorized as primarily cardiogenic, which includes more commonly pulmonary vein thrombus, occlusion, unilateral hypoplastic pulmonary artery, congenital or surgical right-to-left shunt (e.g., Blalock–Taussig shunt), intraoperative or postoperative left lateral positioning for prolonged periods, congestive heart failure, ventricular septal rupture post acute myocardial infarction, fluid overload or primarily pulmogenic, which includes unilateral pulmonary embolism, emphysema/bullae, reexpansion pulmonary edema after thoracocentesis for massive pneumothorax or pleural effusion, Swyer-James syndrome, and pneumonia, among others.
