  • Title: Subcutaneous emphysema, pneumomediastinum, and pneumothorax in diabetic ketoacidosis.
    Author: Toomey FB, Chinnock RF.
    Journal: Radiology; 1975 Sep; 116(3):543-5. PubMed ID: 807950.
    Abstract:
    The authors report two cases of coexistent pneumomediastinum and diabetic ketoacidosis. One patient had pneumothorax as well. Hyperpnea or vomiting, or a combination of the two, may be the etiologic agent in such cases. The prognosis is excellent and there is prompt regression of the pneumomediastinum following correction of the ketoacidosis.
