Pneumomediastinum is the presence of air in the mediastinum. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is an infrequent, benign, and self-limiting condition that predominantly affects young males and pregnant females. It is important to distinguish pneumomediastinum symptoms from similar clinical findings that require immediate treatment, such as cardiac ...

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.

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.

Neonatal Spontaneous Pneumomediastinum
Lung, 2014We present the case of a male newborn, admitted to our unit 4 hours after delivery with respiratory distress syndrome. Born by normal vaginal delivery at 39 weeks of gestation after an uncomplicated pregnancy, weighing 3,070 g, with Apgar score 9/10, he presented with progressive respiratory distress (grunting, tachypnea, nasal flaring, and intercostal

Spontaneous pneumomediastinum in children
Pediatric Pulmonology, 2001SUMMARY. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is rare in children, mainly affecting male adolescents. It is usually secondary to alveolar rupture in the pulmonary interstitium, followed by dissection of gas towards the hilum and mediastinum. Many pathological and physiological events can lead to alveolar rupture, but the most common cause in children is

We report 2 cases of spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) with clinical presentations similar to pericarditis, including positional chest pain, tachycardia, a precordial rub, and electrocardiographic changes. Chest radiography is the most commonly used imaging modality for diagnosis, but the findings may be subtle.

[Spontaneous pneumomediastinum].
Revue des maladies respiratoires, 2022Pneumomediastinum, which can be spontaneous or secondary, is defined by the presence of free air in the mediastinum as shown on a chest X-ray and/or chest CT, with or without subcutaneous emphysema. Secondary pneumomediastinum develops in various contexts (thoracic traumatism, perforation of central airway or digestive tract, pneumothorax ...
