Pleural Disorders - Treatment
![](https://api.digitalmedia.hhs.gov/api/v2/resources/media/18926/thumbnail.jpg)
How your pleural disorder is treated depends on what type of pleural disorder you have and how severe it is. Some pleural disorders go away without treatment. Others will require a procedure to remove air, fluid, or other material from the pleural space. The goal of treatment is to relieve symptoms and treat the underlying condition.
