Acute Negative Pressure Pulmonary Edema (NPPE) in a 14‐Year‐Old Boy Following Laparoscopic Appendectomy—A Clinical Challenge and a Proposal for Mechanical Ventilation

Case Reports in Critical Care, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Negative pressure pulmonary edema (NPPE) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication resulting from the generation of markedly negative intrathoracic pressure in response to upper airway obstruction (UAO). This leads to disruption of the alveolar–capillary barrier and transudation of fluid into the alveolar spaces.
