  • Title: Cough-induced bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax.
    Author: Wang H, Nugent WC.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2010 Oct; 90(4):1363-5. PubMed ID: 20868851.
    Abstract:
    We report an otherwise healthy man who presented with bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, pneumopericardium, and subcutaneous emphysema induced by a bout of coughing. Although this condition is rare, most patients can be treated nonsurgically with the expectation of full recovery.
