Abstract

Background : Spontaneous pneumopericardium is a very rare condition. Spontaneous pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum have been reported to be associated with an idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). However, spontaneous pneumopericardium has not yet been reported in association with IPF. Here we report a case of spontaneous pneumomediastinum and pneumopericardium in a patient with acute exacerbation of IPF with a review of the relevant literature.

저자들은 급성 악화를 보인 특발성 폐섬유화증 환자에서 발생한 종격동기흉을 동반한 자발성 심낭기종 환자를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
