In a retrospective review of 155 children with tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration (FBA), there were ten patients who had pneumomediastinum (PM) on an initial chest radiograph. Nine of ten presented with PM and one patient had PM noted after bronchoscopy. In a child less than two years of age with no history of trauma, the radiographic finding of PM should prompt further investigation for FBA.
在一项对155例气管支气管异物吸入（FBA）儿童的回顾性研究中，有10例患者在初次胸部X线片上显示有纵隔气肿（PM）。其中9例在X线片上表现为纵隔气肿，1例在支气管镜检查后发现纵隔气肿。对于年龄小于2岁且无外伤史的儿童，纵隔气肿的影像学表现应促使进一步检查是否存在气管支气管异物吸入。
