Massive Subcutaneous Emphysema

, M.D.
Pages 117-120 | Published online: 18 Apr 2016
 

Abstract

The frightening appearance of the patient with massive subcutaneous emphysema belies the usual benignity of this condition. It is a manifestation of a large air leak, and therapy, if indicated, is directed toward correcting this defect. A better understanding of this complication will prevent needless and sometimes harmful therapeutic interference.
