Causes
It is most commonly caused by:
- Oesophageal rupture, for example in Boerhaave syndrome
- Asthma or other conditions leading to alveolar rupture
- Esophageal perforation
- Esophageal or bowel rupture
- Use of Breathing Machines
- Excess coughing, sneezing, vomiting
It has also been associated with:
It can be induced to assist thoracoscopic surgery.[3]
It can be caused by a pulmonary barotrauma resulting when a person moves to or from a higher pressure environment, such as when a Scuba diver[4][5], a free-diver[6] or an airplane passenger[7] ascends or descends.
