• Complications may include hemorrhage, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumomediastinum, and pneumothorax.
• However, that does not always occur and sometimes those conditions are actually the cause, not the result, of pneumomediastinum.
• He also was involved in the development of the procedure known as pneumomediastinum and in multiple investigations involving hematology and infectious diseases.
• Pneumomediastinum is most commonly seen in otherwise healthy young male patients and may not be prefaced by a relevant medical history of similar ailments.
• Pneumomediastinum is the presence of air in the mediastinum, which in some cases can lead to pneumothorax, pneumoperitoneum, and pneumopericardium if left untreated.
• The "'thymic sail sign "'or "'spinnaker-sail sign "'is due to elevation of the thymic lobes in the setting of pneumomediastinum.

• When airways are damaged, air can escape from them and be trapped in the surrounding tissues in the neck ( subcutaneous emphysema ) and mediastinum ( pneumomediastinum ); if it builds up to high enough pressures there, it can compress the airways.
• Furthermore, any mediastinal or lung injury will cause either a pneumomediastinum, haemopneumomediastinum, pneumothorax, or haemopneumothorax; any of these can go on to become the " tension " variety, which causes a mass effect in the chest, which exacerbates either the tamponade and / or respiratory compromise, hastening death.
