Abstract
Subcutaneous emphysema is an unusual complication of bronchiolitis. The investigators describe a patient with bronchiolitis who developed extensive subcutaneous emphysema. Despite an alarming appearance, the patient recovered with symptomatic care and observation. Review of the literature shows a multitude of causes of subcutaneous emphysema. The vast majority of cases resolve without intervention.Entities:
