Enteric Fermentation In The Thoracic Cavity

Thoracotomy performed without anesthesia
Costal incision reveals pleural putrescence
Pleural effusion of bile and hemoptysis
Enteric fermentation – visceral fluorescence

Intestinal gases beneath collapsed lung
Fetid pneumothorax – infection has begun

Enteric fermentation!
Inside the thoracic location!
Anaerobic decomposition!
Hemolytic visceral digestion!

Peristalsis displaced into the chest
Duodenum prolapses between lungs compressed
Perforated esophagus emits a borax stench
Gastrointestinal sepsis – microbial trench

Bacterial translocation – alveolar necrosis
Abdominal resonance – gaseous prognosis
Enteric exudate soaks the mediastinum
Fermented lungs in vespertine delirium

Enteric fermentation!
Gastric juice floods the cystic pleura station
Enzymatic putrefaction!
Digesting the thoracic foundation
