Post partum pneumothorax: two case reports and discussion.

J M Harten1, A G Brown, I T Davidson.   

Abstract

Pneumothorax is a rare event during pregnancy. We present two cases of pneumothorax occurring after caesarean section under general anaesthesia, including one tension pneumothorax. We summarise risk factors for developing a pneumothorax during pregnancy and discuss differential diagnosis and the anaesthetic management in the labour ward.
