ABSTRACT
The authors describe the observation of a localized tissue emphysema of the right cheek, which developed in an eight-year-old child as the early complication of tonsillectomy performed under local anaesthesia. In addition to reflections on the possible pathways of the gas from the tonsillar bed into interstitial spaces of the cheek, the authors draw attention also to possible concurrent penetration into the soft tissues of the neck and mediastinum.
