    Author: Jager GJ, Rijssen HV, Lamers JJ.
    Journal: Gastrointest Radiol; 1990; 15(3):253-8. PubMed ID: 2341001.
    Abstract:
    Three cases of subcutaneous emphysema of the lower extremity due to abdominal disease are reported. These were due to (a) perforation of the sigmoid, (b) perirectal abscess, and (c) non-traumatic metastatic gas gangrene due to emphysematous cholecystitis. The mechanisms and anatomical pathways are discussed.
