Overview

Pneumomediastinum may be classified according to cause into spontaneous pneumomediastinum and secondary pneumomediastinum. Both the categories have multiple causes.

Classification

Pneumomediastinum is mainly classified according to the cause into 2 groups[1]:


 
 
 
 
 
Pneumomediastinum
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Spontaneous pneumomediastinum
•Tobacco and recreational drug use
 
 
 
Secondary pneumomediastinum
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Iatrogenic
• Endoscopic procedures
• Intubation/extubation
• Central line access
