We encountered 3 male patients with spontaneous pneumomediastinum. The patients were a 16-year old and a 17-year old and a 24-year old. Predisposing episodes for the development of spontaneous pneumomediastinum could be identified in all 3 patients: throwing a ball during a baseball game in 1, lifting a heavy load during work in 2. However, they were healthy and suddenly developed symptoms in the absence of any underlying disease. The presenting complaint was chest pain in all 3 patients. Chest X-ray films and chest CT images revealed pneumomediastinum. A diagnosis of spontaneous pneumomediastinum was made based on chest X-ray films and chest CT images. After conservative treatment, all 3 patients recovered.
我们遇到了3例自发性纵隔气肿的男性患者。患者分别为16岁、17岁和24岁。在所有3例患者中均能确定自发性纵隔气肿发生的诱发事件:1例在棒球比赛中投掷球,2例在工作中搬运重物。然而,他们身体健康,在没有任何基础疾病的情况下突然出现症状。所有3例患者的主要症状均为胸痛。胸部X光片和胸部CT图像显示纵隔气肿。根据胸部X光片和胸部CT图像做出了自发性纵隔气肿的诊断。经过保守治疗,所有3例患者均康复。
