Case Reports[Three patients with spontaneous pneumomediastinum, including one in whom pneumomediastinum recurred].
We encountered three patients with spontaneous pneumomediastinum. All three (two men and one woman) were previously healthy. They complained of chest pain or dyspnea. ⋯ All other findings were normal. All patients were treated with bed rest and all recovered in 7 to 9 days. Pneumomediastinum recurred in one patient after 20 months.
