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.Year: 2000 PMID: 15321083 DOI: 10.1054/ijoa.2000.0767
