AIM: After having read the articles by Treasure and Beshay about the particular incidence of @entity5229 ( @entity5229 ) in @entity1 with daily consumption of Cannabis the authors took a strictly control of these subjects reviewing their personal experience in the treatment of this condition. In particular, the prevalence of @entity5229 has been evaluated through genomic assay of monocorial twins. The strong impact of the inflammatory phenomena that have always supported the @entity2415 burning is 10 time higher among worldwide population and @entity1 with @entity5229 . METHODS: In order to determine the real incidence of @entity5229 in @entity1 with proved daily assumption of Cannabis a retrospective analysis of @entity1 with history of Cannabis @entity734 has been performed. In the period from January 2002 and June 2007,12 consecutive @entity1 with @entity5229 and history of @entity835 were enrolled. Selection criteria were: 1) age <16 years; 2) single-sided @entity5229 ; 3) history of daily Cannabis assumption. @entity1 with previous thoracic surgery/trauma and positive anamnesis for other drug assumption (ODA), snorkelling or work exposition to pollutions were excluded. In order to avoid the clinical overlapping of pathology and clinical symptoms due to other factors, @entity1 with @entity1143 and documented similar episodes were excluded. This series focused on particular on twins. In all the @entity1 an @entity5274 was inserted, and 3 @entity1 underwent toracostomy. RESULTS: No operatory mortality and/or complications were observed. CONCLUSIONS: The role of the thoracic surgeon is important to sensitize on the problem of the circulation of light drugs among young @entity1 and their effects on the lung activity.
