We report a case of pneumoscrotum following the placement of an endotracheal catheter. The mechanism was most probably a blowout of an alveolus as a result of mechanical ventilation. The air dissected by vascular sheaths to the lung, then into the mediastinum and, thus, to the subcutaneous tissue of the neck, along the chest and abdominal wall to reach the scrotum. With cessation of mechanical ventilation, the subcutaneous emphysema resolved without sequelae.
我们报告一例气管内导管置入后发生阴囊积气的病例。其机制很可能是机械通气导致肺泡破裂。空气经血管鞘进入肺部，然后进入纵隔，进而沿着胸壁和腹壁到达颈部皮下组织，最终到达阴囊。随着机械通气停止，皮下气肿消退，未留下后遗症。
