Pneumomediastinum After Transbronchial Lung Biopsy
Journal of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology, 2010 Pneumomediastinum is a rare complication of a transbronchial lung biopsy. Common symptoms are chest pain, dyspnea, dysphagia, and specific electrocardiographic changes. We report a case of pneumomediastinum after a transbronchial lung biopsy. During the in-hospital stay, the symptoms and clinical picture rapidly improved without invasive treatment ...
