Spontaneous Mediastinal Emphysema (SME), which is a rarely seen case is defined as the detection of free air in the mediastinum without any trauma. Although rare, some cases secondary to drug use have been reported. In this study, two SME cases that developed due to the use of a synthetic cannabinoid known as "bonzai", which has recently become widespread in Turkey, are presented. We would like to emphasize that SME should also be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients who present with the symptoms of chest pain and dyspnea and have a history of drug use.
自发性纵隔气肿（SME）是一种罕见病例，定义为在没有任何创伤的情况下纵隔内发现游离气体。虽然罕见，但已有继发于药物使用的一些病例报道。在本研究中，呈现了两例因使用一种名为“盆栽”的合成大麻素而发生的SME病例，该合成大麻素最近在土耳其广泛传播。我们要强调，对于出现胸痛和呼吸困难症状且有药物使用史的患者进行鉴别诊断时，也应考虑自发性纵隔气肿。
