Recurrent Spontaneous Pneumothorax Following Helicopter Travel In High Altitude Areas.
Article in English | IMSEAR | ID: sea-167544
ABSTRACT
A young healthy soldier, non smoker with no previous lung disease, presented with two separate episodes of primary spontaneous pneumothorax within six months, both preceded by low level helicopter travel during high altitude postings. This diagnosis must be considered in patients with acute onset chest pain and dyspnoea even when other risk factors are seemingly absent. Recurrence is common and so this differential must be kept in mind even after complete treatment of a previous episode.
