Juniper Publishers - Journal of Pediatrics Abstract Cervical and mediastinal emphysema associated with acute asthma exacerbation is very rare. In most cases, air leakage from ruptured alveolar escapes and dissects the hilum along peribronchovascular sheaths and spreads to mediastinum. Once in the mediastinum, air extends around the large vessel and esophagus to thoracic wall. This report presents the case of 3 years old patient with background of asthma who presented to the emergency room with palpable cervical emphysema, wheezy chest and CT evidence of cervical and mediastinal emphysema. There are only a limited number of case reports associated with cervical and mediastinal emphysema in the absence of pneumothorax in patient with asthma..

Juniper Publishers - Journal of Pediatrics Abstract The discipline of reconstructive craniofacial plastic surgery was formally developed in 1967 at The Fourth International Congress of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in Rome, Italy. It was here that the French plastic surgeon Paul Tessier, MD, FACS presented to his colleagues the concept of pediatric craniofacial surgery as a major surgical discipline.
