Abstract (2. Language): 
Pneumopericardium is a rare condition, less common than either isolated pneumothorax or pneumomediastinum. Acute hemodynamic deterioration in a patient with pneumopericardium should prompt further investigation and cardiac tamponade should be actively ruled out. Pneumopericardium is a rare but important complication of asthma. In this paper, 2-year-old boy is described who presented with acute respiratory distress and diagnosed as asthma, egg allergy and pneumopericardium.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Çocuklu ça¤›nda izole pnomomediastinum veya pnomotoraksa göre pnomoperikardiyum nadir görülen bir komplikasyondur. Kardiak tamponat gibi hemodinami¤in ani olarak bozulabilece¤i komplikasyonlar aç›s›ndan çok iyi izlenmesi gerekir. Ast›m tan›s› alm›fl hastalarda pnomoperikardiyum nadir ancak önemli bir komplikasyondur. Bu olguda, 2 yafl›nda bir erkek hastada yumurta allerjisine ba¤l› akut ast›m ata¤› tan›s›n›n ilk kez solunum s›k›nt›s› ve pnomoperikardium ile ortaya ç›kmas› sunulmaktad›r
