This upper airway obstruction was followed by negative pressure pulmonary oedema. The patient improved on mechanical ventilation; however, his condition was complicated with the occurrence of bilateral pneumothoraces. After release of the pneumothoraces and reexpansion of the lungs, the child developed reexpansion pulmonary oedema, culminating in acute lung injury.
