Spontaneous pneumomediastinum in children is a very rare, benign entity. Recurrent episodes are exceptional. Identifying an underlying trigger is crucial, and very often, spontaneous pneumomediastinum occurs in association with an asthma exacerbation. We report the case of a patient in which we hypothesize that an underlying tracheomalacia can be held responsible for the recurrent pneumomediastinum, which is to this date the first case with this assumption.

儿童自发性纵隔气肿是一种非常罕见的良性病症。复发情况极为罕见。确定潜在诱因至关重要，而且自发性纵隔气肿常常与哮喘发作相关。我们报告了一例患者，我们推测潜在的气管软化可能是复发性纵隔气肿的病因，截至目前这是首例基于此假设的病例。《儿科肺科》。2017年；52卷：E29 - E31。© 2016威利期刊公司
