AbstractA 28-year-old Chinese man was resuscitated following fractures to his left humerus and pelvis. Multiple attempts at internal jugular central venous catheterisation resulted in an undetected pneumothorax, which became clinically apparent during induction of general anaesthesia. The pneumothorax was treated promptly and the patient made a successful recovery post-surgery. The mechanisms, causes, clinical and radiological features of pneumothorax are discussed, with emphasis on anaesthetically - related iatrogenic pneumothorax.
