초록

Palatine tonsillectomy is a very common procedure and it is relatively safe and has few complications. However, some severe, although rare, complications that can lead a patient to lifethreateningstatus can occur following palatine tonsillectomy. Subcutaneous or mediastinalemphysema is one of the severe complications. We report a case of subcutaneous emphysemaand pneumomediastinum after palatine tonsillectomy in a healthy 18-year-old man. After conservativemanagement, subcutaneous emphysema was subsided without other complications.

Abstract

Palatine tonsillectomy is a very common procedure and it is relatively safe and has few complications. However, some severe, although rare, complications that can lead a patient to lifethreateningstatus can occur following palatine tonsillectomy. Subcutaneous or mediastinalemphysema is one of the severe complications. We report a case of subcutaneous emphysemaand pneumomediastinum after palatine tonsillectomy in a healthy 18-year-old man. After conservativemanagement, subcutaneous emphysema was subsided without other complications.
