Catamenial Pneumomediastinum

Chest, 1986
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.

Pneumothorax and Pneumomediastinum

2013
PNX is a collection of air in the pleural cavity which leads to crushing of the lung and its consequent collapse [1]. Lung collapse may be partial or total and in some hypertensive forms it can also lead to the shift of the mediastinum towards the opposite hemithorax.

Pneumomediastinum in the Neonate

Neonatal Network, 2014
A pneumomediastinum is an air leak in which the free air is concentrated in the mediastinum. Although most neonatal pneumomediastinums do not require intervention, complications such as subsequent air leaks can arise. Proper radiologic identification, as well as an understanding of the anatomy and pathophysiology associated with a pneumomediastinum ...

Tension Pneumomediastinum

Archives of Surgery, 1977
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.

Pneumothorax and Pneumomediastinum in the Newborn

Investigative Radiology, 1971
Abstract Chest films in 300 routine vaginal deliveries, 100 premature infants, 100 infants born by cesarean section, and 50 intubated infants were obtained within two hours after birth. The incidence of pneumothorax was 1.3% in routine vaginal deliveries, 1% in premature infants, 2% in cesarean sections, and 6% in intubated newborns.

Pneumomediastinum Revisited

RadioGraphics, 2000
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].

Spontaneous pneumomediastinum

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1993
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.
