RESUMO
Pneumothorax during pregnancy is a rare and potentially serious complication for both mother and fetus. Due to an increased need for oxygen during pregnancy and delivery, pneumothorax affects fetal oxygen supply, since it causes hypoxia in the mother. The authors describe a case of pneumothorax during pregnancy and conduct a literature review.
