Retroperitoneal Air

Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is characterised by vascular compression of the third part of the duodenum, resulting in obstructive symptoms. This case has been selected for its unusual presentation with pneumomediastinum and for the strikingly abnormal cross-sectional findings. We present the case of a young male of asthenic build, who was admitted to hospital with a history mimicking Boerhaave's syndrome (spontaneous oesophageal perforation). Radiological features included pneumomediastinum, but also an astonishing degree of gastric and duodenal dilatation. Extraluminal retroperitoneal air was also noted, further complicating the patient's presentation. We explore the relevant imaging and surgical findings, and relate these to an initially puzzling diagnostic dilemma.

Retroperitoneal Air

The author presents a succinct view of diseases of the adrenal glands in which radiologic diagnosis, especially with presacral retroperitoneal air injections is an important consideration There are 15 brief chapters well illustrated and effectively documented (324 items are listed in the bibliography) of which 10 are devoted to individual adrenal mass lesions. The first 5 chapters include a classification of adrenal tumors and survey of clinical syndromes comments on conventional radiographic techniques and the technique of presacral retroperitoneal pneumography, and a consideration of adrenal calcifications and normal radiographic anatomy.

Retroperitoneal Air

There have been several case reports documenting acute appendicitis complicated by perforation presenting with retroperitoneal abscess formation. To date, there are no case reports of acute appendicitis in which the only sign for retroperitoneal perforation is the presence of retroperitoneal air as detected by computed tomography (CT). In the case presented, an 18-year-old male presented to the emergency department with clinical symptoms of acute appendicitis. CT exam demonstrated an inflamed appendix with multiple collections of air in the retroperitoneum, without abscess. Laparotomy revealed perforation of a retrocecal appendix into the retroperitoneum.
