Disposition of spontaneous pneumomediastinum

American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1991
In the evaluation of spontaneous pneumomediastinum, it is important to exclude pathological causes of pneumomediastinum, including Boerhaave's syndrome, which carries a high mortality rate. The literature varies greatly as to the care of patients with presumed spontaneous pneumomediastinum.

Spontaneous pneumomediastinum in children

European Journal of Pediatrics, 1991

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.

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.
