Pneumoretroperitoneum is rare, but sometimes seen in association with pneumoperitoneum as a result of barotrauma to the lungs. However, there have only been two previous cases of pneumoretroperitoneum without pneumoperitoneum following barotrauma. This case discusses several of the possible mechanisms by which this could occur and what associated signs, especially on chest X-ray, one should look for to confirm the aetiology of gas in the retroperitoneal space.
腹膜后积气很少见,但有时会与因肺部气压伤导致的气腹同时出现。然而,此前仅有两例在气压伤后出现无气腹的腹膜后积气病例。本病例探讨了这种情况可能发生的几种机制,以及为确认腹膜后间隙气体病因应寻找的相关体征,尤其是胸部X线检查中的体征。
