A previously healthy young man presented to A&E with severe dyspnoea. The cause of his distress was bilateral spontaneous pneumothoraces. Prompt insertion of chest drains relieved his distress. This rare clinical entity should be considered in an individual with severe respiratory distress. Diagnosis is difficult on clinical examination alone.
一名既往健康的年轻男性因严重呼吸困难被送往急诊室。其呼吸困难的原因是双侧自发性气胸。迅速插入胸腔引流管缓解了他的呼吸困难。对于有严重呼吸窘迫的个体,应考虑这种罕见的临床情况。仅靠临床检查很难做出诊断。
