초록

경막외기종은 자발기종격, 자발기흉, 천식 발작, 기침, 심한 구토, 외상 등에 의해 발생할 수 있지만 기관지 이물에 의한 경우는 드물고, 고환기종 역시 대장내시경, 진단적 복강경, 간생검 등에 의해 발생하는 경우가 보고되고 있지만, 기관지 이물에 의한 경우는 아직까지 국내 외에 보고된 적이 없다. 이에 본 저자들을 기관지 이물에 의해 심한 고환기종 및 경막외기종, 기종격, 기흉이 발생한 18개월된 남아에 대해 보고하는 바이다.

Epidural emphysema and pneumoscrotum with subcutaneous emphysema are rare in a child past the neonatal period. Their most common causes are bronchial asthma and respiratory infection. Here, we report an 18-month-old boy who was presented with severe air leak, consisting of epidural emphysema, pneumoscrotum, subcutaneous emphysema, and pneumomediastinum, complicated by a bronchial foreign body. The air leak was resolved dramatically after removing the foreign body.
