Fenestrated angiocatheter for extensive subcutaneous emphysema.

Abstract
A minimally invasive technique using fenestrated angiocatheters has been described in adult literature for the treatment of extensive subcutaneous emphysema. Here we report a 30 month old infant who developed extensive subcutaneous emphysema and pneumomediastinum, which was relieved by application of microdrainage catheters.
