We present our experience with 5 patients, all of whom were noted to have radiological signs of pneumoperitoneum in the absence of clinical features of peritonitis. All 5 cases were eventually shown to be due to causes not requiring surgery. We review the numerous unusual causes of pneumoperitoneum which do not require urgent surgical intervention and emphasize their importance in cases where the absence of signs of peritonitis may cause diagnostic difficulty.
我们介绍了5例患者的情况，所有患者均在无腹膜炎临床特征的情况下出现气腹的放射学征象。所有5例最终显示是由无需手术的原因所致。我们回顾了气腹的众多不寻常病因，这些病因不需要紧急手术干预，并强调了它们在无腹膜炎体征可能导致诊断困难的病例中的重要性。
