Description

Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is a rare condition and a benign self-limited disorder that usually occurs in young men without remarkable factor or disease. We experienced a 14-year-old boy with SPM complaining of gradual onset of chest pain while playing with his dog. He was hospitalized and treated conservatively, and his symptoms resolved 4 days post-admission. We should recognize SPM as one of the causes of chest pain in young men.
