Pneumothoraces of both lungs (large arrows), pneumomediastinum (small arrow) and subcutaneous emphysema in a patient with complete disruption of the right bronchus. Air leak was continual despite suction. [1] Signs and symptoms vary depending on what part of the tracheobronchial tree is injured and how severely it is damaged. [6]
In some lung diseases, especially emphysema, it is possible for abnormal lung areas such as bullae (large air-filled sacs) to have the same appearance as a pneumothorax on chest X-ray, and it may not be safe to apply any treatment before the distinction is made and before the exact location and size of the pneumothorax is determined.

Image shows early occurrence of tracheal deviation. Tracheal deviation is a clinical sign that results from unequal intrathoracic pressure within the chest cavity.It is most commonly associated with traumatic pneumothorax, but can be caused by a number of both acute and chronic health issues, such as pneumonectomy, atelectasis, pleural effusion, fibrothorax (pleural fibrosis), or some cancers ...

Arrows A: air, B: fluid: Specialty: Pulmonology, cardiothoracic surgery Symptoms: Fever, chest pain with breathing in, cough, shortness of breath: Causes: Bacteria (often Strep. pneumonia) Diagnostic method: Chest X-ray, Ultrasound, CT scan, thoracentesis: Differential ...
Left tension pneumothorax with a large, well-demarcated area devoid of lung markings with tracheal deviation and movement of the heart away from the affected side. Mediastinal shift is an abnormal movement of the mediastinal structures toward one side of the chest cavity .
In cases of hemothorax complicating pulmonary embolism treatment, the hemothorax is usually on the side of the original embolism. [6] Those with an abnormal accumulation of air within the pleural space (a pneumothorax) can bleed into the cavity, which occurs in about 5% of cases of spontaneous pneumothorax, [8] especially when lung bullae ...
