Extrapleural air secondary to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis‐related pneumomediastinum
Key message Extrapleural air is a rare condition that may concurrently develop with pneumomediastinum and pneumothorax, especially in older patients with fragile connective tissues. Physicians should consider extrapleural air to prevent inadvertent harm. Coronal reconstruction computed tomography im...

| description | Key message Extrapleural air is a rare condition that may concurrently develop with pneumomediastinum and pneumothorax, especially in older patients with fragile connective tissues. Physicians should consider extrapleural air to prevent inadvertent harm. Coronal reconstruction computed tomography images help appreciate extrapleural air and recognize the track of extrapulmonary air. |
