This case report details a rare instance of spontaneous pneumothorax in a 34-year-old female, presumed to be catamenial in origin due to its menstrual cycle correlation and absence of endometriosis.

The paper is a case report describing a 34-year-old woman’s first episode of spontaneous pneumothorax, which the authors presume is catamenial based on its temporal coincidence with her menstrual cycle. The report’s focus is primarily on the clinical presentation and the therapeutic approach being driven by the need to control complications arising from pneumothorax, in the context of catamenial pneumothorax. A key limitation is that, as a single-case report, it provides limited generalizability and the presumed catamenial association is not established by an endometriosis-linked mechanism in this case. Relevance to endometriosis: the title and context explicitly state “no asociado a endometriosis,” distinguishing it from endometriosis-related catamenial pneumothorax, though it is included because it concerns catamenial pneumothorax and endometriosis-related differential diagnosis.

Abstract

El neumotórax espontáneo idiopático constituye una causa poco frecuente de neumotórax, si se le atribuyen causas no pulmonares como el neumotórax catamenial y/o neumotórax catamenial no asociado a endometriosis, esta condición se hace aún más rara. El abordaje terapéutico está en estrecha relación al control de las complicaciones generadas por el neumotórax. Se presenta a continuación el caso de una paciente femenina de 34 años, quien debuta con su primer episodio de neumotórax espontáneo, el cual se presume a características catameniales por la coincidencia con el ciclo menstrual de la misma.
