Pneumothorax can occur as part of medical procedures, such as the insertion of a [[central venous catheter]] in the[[subclavian vein]] or [[jugular vein]]. While rare, it is considered a serious complication and needs immediate treatment. Other causes include [[mechanical ventilation]], [[emphysema]] and rarely other lung diseases such as [[pneumonia]].

Overview

Pneumothorax can occur as part of medical procedures, such as the insertion of a central venous catheter in the subclavian vein or jugular vein. While rare, it is considered a serious complication and needs immediate treatment. Other causes include mechanical ventilation, emphysema and rarely other lung diseases such as pneumonia.
