2.A Case of Missed Giant Bullae Emphysema Diagnosed as Pneumothorax
Medicine and Health 2017;12(1):90-93
We report a case of a giant bullous emphysema misdiagnosed as a pneumothorax.
A 18-year-old chronic smoker presented with right sided chest pain and dyspnoea.
Initial respiratory rate was 35 /min, blood pressure was 136/90 mmHg, heart rate
80/min and SpO2 was 98% on room air. Clinical examination revealed reduced
right air entry and left trachea deviation. Chest X-ray helped to arrive at a diagnosis
of pneumothorax. Needle aspiration was then performed followed by a chest tube
thoracostomy because of no improvement. Massive amount of blood was drained
and patient deteriorated further. CT thorax revealed a right haemopneumothorax
with multiple bullaes. Patient was rushed to OT for emergency thoracotomy for
stapling of the ruptured bullae. Giant bullous emphysema can mimic pneumothorax
and physician must be vigilant if draining a suspected pneumothorax.

Subcutaneous emphysema is the presence of gas or air in the
subcutaneous tissue plane. The term is generally used to
describe any soft tissue emphysema of the body wall or
limbs, it can result from benign causes, most commonly
secondary to trauma or from a life-threatening infection by
gas gangrene or necrotising fasciitis. A case of subcutaneous
emphysema involving the upper limb resulting from a trivial
laceration to the elbow is reported and the importance of
distinguishing between the two causes of subcutaneous
emphysema is highlighted.

10.An unusual cause of chest pain in army trainee -spontaneous pneumomediastinum
The Medical Journal of Malaysia 2016;71(1):30-31
This is a case report of spontaneous pneumomediastinum
that occurred in a 19-year-old army trainee during his 2.4km
run. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum is a rare disorder. It
is usually precipitated by activities related to Valsalva
manoeuvres such as strenuous physical activities, retching
and vomiting. Treatment is expectant and the disorder
usually resolves spontaneously within a few days. However,
one must be aware of the disorder so that additional advice
such as avoiding activities that involve Valsalva manoeuvres
can be given.
