A Case of Spontaneous Pneumomediastinum in Covid-19 Pneumonia.
Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is defined as free air in the mediastinum thought to be due to non-traumatic rupture of marginal alveoli without evidence of underlying lung disease. Secondary causes must be excluded, including perforations of the esophagus, trachea, and bronchi, due to their propensity for unfavorable outcomes. Infectious etiologies have been documented to cause pneumomediastinum, but this is most frequently observed in the setting of mechanical and noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV). Here we present a case of asymptomatic spontaneous pneumomediastinum in a patient with COVID-19 in absence of mechanical ventilation.
