Traumatic pneumothorax with subcutaneous (SQ) emphysema

This is an example of a traumatic pneumothorax with subcutaneous (SQ) emphysema. Previously, we posted an image of the pneumothorax after CPR with SQ emphysema.

On the image above, please note an incomplete resolution of the pneumothorax after chest tube placement by a trauma surgeon.
