dc.description.abstractSpontaneous pneumomediastinum is an infrequent condition in children under 18 years old, of various etiologies, and benign clinical course. Acute asthma is among the main reasons for medical care in the emergency room, but there is controversy in defining near-fatal asthma. We present the case of an adolescent with chronic severe asthma and risk factors for near-fatal asthma, followed by the presence of pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema. The diagnosis was made with clinical data and supported by proper radiographic studies. Both pneumomediastinum as well as near-fatal asthma are two infrequent conditions for asthma. Early detection of both results in good patient care.
