Figure 1. Left lateral radiograph of the caudal abdomen and pelvis. In Figure 1, the descending colon is mostly gas-filled in the mid-abdomen. Unusually, the serosal surface of the colonic wall is visible, indicating the presence of free peritoneal gas (that is, pneumoperitoneum).
5 kwi 2024 · The most common cause of pneumoperitoneum is the disruption of the wall of a hollow viscus. In children, the causes are different from the adult population and are considered in the neonatal pneumoperitoneum article.

8 kwi 2011 · Herein we review the literature on the sonographic findings of intraperitoneal free air and the technical manoeuvres that can improve clinicians’ detection of intraperitoneal free air using point-of-care ultrasound. Keywords: Diagnosis, pneumoperitoneum, ultrasonography. Go to: INTRODUCTION.
19 gru 2019 · The most common imaging modality used to rule out free air is the upright abdominal radiograph. The most sensitive imaging modality to detect free air is the CT. Perforation or rupture of an air-containing bowel loop is the most common cause of free intraperitoneal air.
Lung and airway disorders are often caused by direct infection with viruses, bacteria, fungi, or parasites, as well as by immune-mediated reactions or inhalation of irritants or toxic substances. Trauma (such as being hit by a car) may lead to the collapse of a lung or airway.
