Abstract

Pneumomediastinum is the collection of free air in the interstitial tissue of mediastinum as a result of perforation of some part of the gastrointestinal or respiratory system. In this article, we report ten year old girl with pneumonia complicated by pneumomediastinum admitted with complaints of cough, dyspnea and fever. We experienced difficulty in diagnosis since pneumomediastinum was a late finding (after 24 hours) in chest-ray.

Özet

Pnömomediastinum, gastrointestinal veya respiratuar sistemde meydana gelen perforasyon sonucu, mediastenin interstisyel dokularında serbest gaz toplanmasıdır. Bu makalede solunum güçlüğü, öksürük, ateş yakınmalarıyla getirilen ve pnömoni tanısı alan 10 yaşındaki kız olguda; klinik tablosunu ağırlaştıran ve 24 saat sonra ortaya çıkan graft bulgusu nedeniyle tanıda zorluk yaşanan pnömomediastinum gelişimi, nadir görülen pnömoni komplikasyonu olarak sunulmuştur.
