ABSTRACT. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is a rare entity in which free air is found within the mediastinum usually as a complication of respiratory diseases and conditions associated with increased intra‐alveolar pressure. We report a case of unusual asymptomatic SPM caused by an attack of asthma.

Tension pneumomediastinum is an infrequently diagnosed but potentially fatal condition. The collection of air under pressure in the mediastinum compromises venous return to the heart and compresses major bronchi, leading to sudden and profound cardiovascular collapse.

A patient with known pelvic endometriosis suffered from recurrent episodes of retrosternal pain in the chest at the time of menstruation. Evaluation during an episode revealed subcutaneous emphysema of the neck and a pneumomediastinum without pneumothorax.

Pneumomediastinum may result from a variety of causes that may be either intrathoracic (eg, narrowed or plugged airway, straining against a closed glottis, blunt chest trauma, alveolar rupture) or extrathoracic (eg, sinus fracture, iatrogenic manipulation in dental extraction, perforation of a hollow viscus [corrected].

A case of spontaneous pneumomediastinum with cervical emphysema is reported. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum may complicate processes that decrease pulmonary interstitial pressure or increase intraalveolar pressure leading to alveolar rupture. Free air may then tract along blood vessels and decompress into the soft tissues of the neck.

Pneumomediastinum is a rare pathological condition with air in the mediastinum outside the trachea and oesophagus. The etiology may be spontaneous/resulting from exertion, traumatic, iatrogenic or it may be due to inflammation, neoplasm or perforation of a hollow abdominal organ.
