ENGLISH ABSTRACT
JOURNAL ARTICLE
["Literally torn apart by coughing"].
Inn Med (Heidelb) 2022 November 29
The present case reports on a 53-year-old patient with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and acute pneumonia who complained of massive right-sided chest pain and hemoptysis after a severe coughing fit. To the authors' great surprise, further clinical and radiological investigations revealed a rupture of the right intercostal muscles caused by the coughing fit, with herniation of parts of the right lower lobe of the lung down to the subcutaneous and below the M. latissimus dorsi. The patient was presented to the colleagues in thoracic surgery and needed to be operated twice, finally with a mesh insert.
