ABSTRACT
Many authors have reported that the most frequent etiology of pneumothorax under general endotracheal anesthesia is high intratracheal pressure, and that bullae and certain pathologic lesions of the lung are predisposing factors for pneumothorax. We have experienced a case of sudden unilateral tension pneumothorax immedipediately following induction of anesthesia in a patient whose chest P-A X-ray revealed a stabilized old-tuberculotic lesion in the right upper lung field. We report this, case with a review of the literature of pneumothorax, especially pertaining to etlology and clinical clinical manifestations.
