A 15 year old girl is presented with subcutaneous emphysema of both arms, neck and thorax which found to be self-induced. The differential diagnosis of subcutaneous emphysema is discussed with especial emphasis on factitious emphysema and the importance of diagnosis.
Pneumoscrotum and subcutaneous emphysema make for impressive findings on examination and imaging. With ranging etiologies, thorough investigation into the source is essential to rule out potentially life threatening situations. We present a 31-year-old man with pneumoscrotum and extensive subcutaneous emphysema of his penis, abdomen, and perineum. History and physical exam didn't reveal a clear...
BACKGROUND Tonsillectomy is a commonly performed and relatively safe surgical procedure. However, it can potentially be associated with several complications.

After surgery, the patient developed facial subcutaneous...
Therapeutic options in severe emphysema are limited. Endoscopic lung volume reduction (ELVR) refers to bronchoscopically inducing volume loss to improve pulmonary mechanics and compliance, thereby reducing the work of breathing. Globally, this technique is increasingly used as treatment for advanced emphysema with the aim of obtaining similar functional advantages to surgical lung volume reduct...
We present a case of a seventeen-year-old patient, admitted in the care of the surgical team following inhalation of nitrous oxide at high pressure, leading to extensive pneumomediastinum and surgical emphysema. We discuss the subsequent investigations and management for this patient. In the absence of history of airway injury and respiratory problems including asthma and with no oesophageal pe...
