A Case of Contralateral Pneumothorax, Pneumomediastinum, and Pneumopericardium after Dual-Chamber Pacemaker Implantation
As permanent pacemaker implantation is increasingly becoming a common practice, it is important to understand potential complications associated with the procedure. We present a 78-year-old Caucasian female who developed contralateral pneumomediastinum, pneumothorax, and pneumopericardium after unde...
