Severe chest and back pain due to extra-pulmonary emphysema above 5,000 m: a series of case reports [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundExtra-pulmonary emphysema is characterized by the presence of gas within loose soft tissues outside the lungs. This condition is frequently mistaken for acute cardiovascular diseases, leading to potential misdiagnosis.

Persistent diffuse pulmonary interstitial emphysema mimicking pulmonary emphysema [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2007
A 69-year-old male non-smoker with a history of atopic asthma presented with symptoms suggestive of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and this appeared to be corroborated by lung function testing and a chest radiograph. However, a chest CT showed no evidence of pulmonary emphysema and instead demonstrated free air along the bronchovascular sheaths ...

Pulmonary artery stiffness in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) and emphysema: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) COPD Study [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and particularly emphysema are characterized by stiffness of the aorta, due in part to accelerated elastin degradation in the lungs and aorta. Stiffness of the pulmonary arteries (PAs) may also be
