AbstractReports of incidental pneumomediastinum in infants secondary to inflicted trauma are limited. A retrospective review of infants with pneumomediastinum and history of inflicted trauma was performed. A comprehensive literature review was performed. Three infants presented with pneumomediastinum associated with inflicted trauma. Mean age was 4.6 weeks. All patients underwent diagnostic studies, as well as a standardized evaluation for nonaccidental trauma. All patients with pneumomediastinum were resolved at follow-up. Review of the literature identified other cases with similar presentations with related oropharyngeal injuries. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum in previously healthy infants may be associated with inflicted injuries. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of an oropharyngeal perforation related to this presentation.

Clinical Considerations

Abstract Pneumomediastinum is the presence of mediastinal air, which raises concern for life-threatening conditions such as esophageal perforation and mediastinitis. Here, we described the case of a young female with no previous past medical history, who developed spontaneous pneumomediastinum following uncomplicated spontaneous vaginal delivery (SVD) giving birth to a healthy newborn at full term. The incidence of benign pneumomediastinum following SVD is estimated at 1 in 100 000 deliveries. This case explores the etiology of this rare presentation, recommends essential investigations and advises on pertinent clinical considerations.
