Abstract

Retropharyngeal emphysema is usually secondary to trauma, iatrogenic injury, and obstructive respiratory diseases. Without prompt and adequate treatment, severe complication such as airway compromise may occur. Spontaneous retropharyngeal emphysema, defined by the presence of free air in the retropharyngeal space without any precipitating cause, is a rare clinical condition in pediatric otolaryngology. The predominant symptoms are sore throat, odynophagia, dysphagia, and neck pain. Here, we report a case of spontaneous retropharyngeal emphysema.

摘要

咽后间隙气肿通常继发于外伤、医源性损伤和阻塞性呼吸道疾病。若不及时进行充分治疗，可能会发生气道受压等严重并发症。自发性咽后间隙气肿是指在无任何诱发因素的情况下，咽后间隙出现游离气体，这在小儿耳鼻咽喉科是一种罕见的临床病症。主要症状为咽痛、吞咽痛、吞咽困难和颈部疼痛。在此，我们报告一例自发性咽后间隙气肿病例。
