  3. Continuous diaphragm sign Air beneath and posterior to the heart Continuous diaphragm sign of pneumomediastinum: the entire diaphragm is visualized from one side to the other because air in the mediastinum outlines the central portion which is usually obscured by the heart and mediastinal softtissue structures that are in contact with the diaphragm.

  4. Pneumomediastinum • Lung • Ruptured Alveolus with dissection of air back along perivascular sheaths to hilum and mediastinum • Increase in Intrapulmonary Pressure • Asthma • Vomiting • Valsalva maneuver • Artificial ventilation • Closed chest trauma • Sudden drop in atmospheric pressure • Mediastinal airways • Rupture of trachea or mainstem bronchus • Usually produced by accidental trauma • Esophagus • Ruptured esophagus • Boerhaave’s Syndrome • Vomiting* • Labor * • Severe asthmatic attacks* • Strenuous exercise* • Site of perforation • Left, posterolateral wall, distal 8 cm *each of these can produce pneumomediastinum w/o esophageal rupture
