Abstract

Spontaneus pneumomediastinum (SP) is firstly described by Hamman in 1939. SP is most commonly found young people without trauma. SP generally occurs depended on severe coughing, hard phisical exercises and incresed intraabdominal pressure. Classical triad of SP is; dispnea, chest pain and subcutaneus amphizema. Incidence of SP is 1/12500 in patients who admitted chest hospital emergency. Surgical decompression is life saving.

Özet

Spontan pnömomediastinum ilk defa Hamman tarafından 1939�da tanımlanmıştır. Bu durum daha çok genç hastalarda genellikle travma olmaksızın, aşırı öksürük, fizik egzersiz ve intra abdominal basınç artışına bağlı olarak gelişmektedir. Spontan gelişen mediastinal amfizemli hastalarda klasik diagnostik semptom triadı ani gelişen nefes darlığı, göğüs ağrısı ve subkutanöz amfizemdir. Görülme sıklığı, acil polikliniğe başvuran hastalarda 1/12500'dir (5). Böyle olgularda cerrahi dekompresyon hayat kurtarıcıdır.
