“The initial recesses of the pleural cavity filled with blood effusion are declivitous; they can vary⟳ according to the decubitus, whereas, with the progressive filling of the pleural cavity, blood is invariably collected in the lateral pleural spaces over the apex of the lung (apical cap): they are very large pleural effusions, in the order⟳ of about 800-1200 cc.”
