Pneumomediastinum, air within the mediastinum, is the manifestation of a variety of causes including those that are benign and some resulting in severe morbidity and even mortality. This article reviews the epidemiology, etiology, and pathophysiology of pneumomediastinum as an independent pathologic and physiologic entity, as well as reviews the workup

European Radiology, 1999
In this paper two cases of spontaneous pneumomediastinum, occurring in a patient with diabetic ketoacidosis and in a patient with bronchial asthma, are presented. We describe the radiological findings, the differential diagnosis and the important radiographic considerations in establishing the diagnosis.

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.

Clinical Characteristics and Outcome of Pneumomediastinum in Patients with COVID-19 Pneumonia.
Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A, 2020Introduction: Pneumomediastinum (PM) is characterized by the presence of air within the mediastinum. The association between PM and coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has not been well established in the current literature.

Pneumothorax and Pneumomediastinum
2013PNX 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.

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 intraâalveolar pressure. We report a case of unusual asymptomatic SPM caused by an attack of asthma.

Pneumomediastinum in the Neonate
Neonatal Network, 2014A 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 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, 1971Abstract 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.
