This is on a hospital x-ray report.

The full sentence is:

Fracturas en el tercer y cuarto arcos costales derechos, adyacente a las mismas se visualiza una imagen de colección podría estar en relación con hematoma extrapleural"

What is "imagen de colección"?

 

[x.y.z]

En inglés es pleural collection
Pleural Collections and Emergencies
This chapter provides information on different types of pleural collections in the emergency setting. These include pleural effusion, pneumothorax, hemothorax, chylothorax, and empyema.

 

[fsabroso]

I agree, I would go with “fluid collection most likely extrapleural hematoma”

 

[ChemaSaltasebes]

I'd go with extrapleural collection or extrapleural opacity in this case. As for the suggested diagnosis, this image is not "pleural" nor is it necessarily "fluid", I believe.
