Spontaneous Pneumomediastinum in a Patient with Covid-19

ABSTRACT

Spontaneous pneumomediastinum is a rare diagnosis. A thirty-five-year-old female who was admitted to our hospital with fever, cough and breathlessness and positive RT-PCR for COVID-19 was diagnosed with spontaneous pneumomediastinum and pneumothorax. She was managed with symptomatic approach and oxygen therapy. Small pneumomediastinum usually requires close monitoring and follows an uneventful course. © 2022 Journal of Association of Physicians of India. All rights reserved.
