Abstract
Pneumoscrotum is an extremely rare occurrence following a variety of procedural and pathological causes. We describe a case following multiple chest drain insertions which was managed conservatively. It is important to differentiate pneumoscrotum from other causes of acute scrotum as it may precede a serious pathology and may require medical or surgical intervention.
