Snippet: Spontaneous pneumomediastinum is an infrequent complication of COVID-19. The mechanism is still unknown and thought to be related to patient self-inflicted lung injury. Our patient is a 49-year-old male who presented with shortness of breath and cough. A COVID-19 Polymerase Chain Reaction was positive. He required a high-flow nasal cannula, but he did not demand mechanical ventilation. Computed tomography angiography scan of the chest revealed pneumomediastinum. He was managed conservatively, an
Document: Spontaneous pneumomediastinum is an infrequent complication of COVID-19. The mechanism is still unknown and thought to be related to patient self-inflicted lung injury. Our patient is a 49-year-old male who presented with shortness of breath and cough. A COVID-19 Polymerase Chain Reaction was positive. He required a high-flow nasal cannula, but he did not demand mechanical ventilation. Computed tomography angiography scan of the chest revealed pneumomediastinum. He was managed conservatively, and a complete recovery was achieved. This case highlights the emerging association of COVID-19, patient self-inflicted lung injury, and pneumomediastinum. Furthermore, spontaneous pneumomediastinum should be suspected even in patients who were not mechanically ventilated.
