Pneumothorax is first seen in the respiratory department or thoracic surgery department, where increased air pressure in the pleural space often leads to pulmonary compression atelectasis, which affects lung ventilation. Spontaneous pneumothorax refers to the spontaneous occurrence of pneumothorax by the patient without external forces, which can generally be seen by the respiratory department.
