'''Pneumoperitoneum''' is [[wikt:pneumatosis|pneumatosis]] (abnormal presence of air or other gas) in the [[peritoneal cavity]], a [[potential space]] within the [[abdominal cavity]]. The most common cause is a perforated [[abdominal organ]], generally from a perforated [[peptic ulcer]], although any part of the [[bowel]] may perforate from a benign ulcer, [[tumor]] or [[abdominal trauma]]. A perforated [[appendix (anatomy)|appendix]] seldom causes a pneumoperitoneum.
Spontaneous pneumoperitoneum is a rare case that is not caused by an abdominal organ rupture. This is also called an idiopathic spontaneous pneumoperitoneum when the cause is not known.
In the mid-twentieth century, an "artificial" pneumoperitoneum was sometimes intentionally administered as a treatment for a [[hiatal hernia]]. This was achieved by insufflating the abdomen with [[carbon dioxide]]. The practice is currently used by surgical teams in order to aid in performing [[laparoscopic surgery]].

==Spontaneous pneumoperitoneum==
A '''spontaneous pneumoperitoneum''' is a rare case that is not caused by an abdominal organ rupture.

In the ventilation case, air had passed from the chest into the abdominal cavity through the [[Thoracic diaphragm|diaphragm.]] In the tracheal rupture air had passed along the [[great vessels]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Gutkin Z, Iellin A, Meged S, Sorkine P, Geller E | title = Spontaneous pneumoperitoneum without peritonitis | journal = International Surgery | volume = 77 | issue = 3 | pages = 219–23 | date = July 1992 | pmid = 1399374 }}</ref>
==Diagnosis==
{{anchor|signs}}
When present, pneumoperitoneum can often be seen on [[projectional radiography]], but small amounts are often missed, and [[CT scan]] is nowadays regarded as a criterion standard in the assessment of a pneumoperitoneum.<ref>{{cite journal | url = http://www.emedicine.com/radio/topic562.htm | title = Pneumoperitoneum Imaging | vauthors = Khan AN, Chandramohan M | veditors = Coombs BD, Gay SD | journal = Emedicine, Medscape | publisher = WebMD LLC | date = 2017-12-06 }}</ref> CT can visualize quantities as small as 5 cm<sup>3</sup> of air or gas.
Signs that can be seen on projectional radiography are shown below:
The ''double wall sign'' marks the presence of air on both sides of the [[intestine]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Harkin DW, Blake G | title = Small bowel obstruction in a young adult | journal = Postgraduate Medical Journal | volume = 75 | issue = 881 | pages = 173–5 | date = March 1999 | pmid = 10448501 | pmc = 1741173 | doi = 10.1136/pgmj.75.881.173 }}</ref> However, a false double wall sign can result from two loops of bowel being in contact with one another.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = de Lacey G, Bloomberg T, Wignall BK | title = Pneumoperitoneum: the misleading double wall sign | journal = Clinical Radiology | volume = 28 | issue = 4 | pages = 445–8 | date = July 1977 | pmid = 872511 | doi = 10.1016/s0009-9260(77)80161-x }}</ref> The sign is named after [[Leo George Rigler]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Hirsch M, Cortés C | title = El signo de Leo Rigler: doble pared en neumoperitoneo.| trans-title = The sign of Leo Rigler: double pared in neumoperitoneo. | language = Spanish | journal = Revista chilena de radiología | date = 2009 | volume = 15 | issue = 3 | pages = 152–4 | doi = 10.4067/S0717-93082009000300008 | doi-access = free }}</ref> It is not the same as [[Rigler's triad]].
The ''football sign'' is when the abdomen appears as a large oval [[radiodensity|radiolucency]] reminiscent of an [[football (ball)#American and Canadian football|American football]] on a supine projectional radiograph.<ref name="pmid14990817">{{cite journal | vauthors = Rampton JW | title = The football sign | journal = Radiology | volume = 231 | issue = 1 | pages = 81–2 | date = April 2004 | pmid = 14990817 | doi = 10.1148/radiol.2311011290 }}</ref> The football sign is most frequently seen in [[infant]]s with spontaneous or [[iatrogenic]] [[gastric perforation]] causing pneumoperitoneum. It is also seen in bowel obstruction with secondary perforation, as in [[Hirschprung disease]], midgut volvulus, [[meconium ileus]] and [[intestinal atresia]]. Iatrogenic causes like endoscopic perforation may also give football sign.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}
The ''Cupola sign'' is seen when air is accumulated under the central tendon of the diaphragm.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Sureka B, Bansal K, Arora A | title = Pneumoperitoneum: What to look for in a radiograph? | journal = Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care | volume = 4 | issue = 3 | pages = 477–8 | date = 2015 | pmid = 26288798 | pmc = 4535122 | doi = 10.4103/2249-4863.161369 | doi-access = free }}</ref>

===Differential diagnosis===
As differential diagnoses, a [[subphrenic abscess]], bowel interposed between diaphragm and liver ([[Chilaiditi syndrome]]), and linear [[atelectasis]] at the base of the lungs can simulate free air under the diaphragm on a chest X-ray.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}

The ''double wall sign'' marks the presence of air on both sides of the [[intestine]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Harkin DW, Blake G | title = Small bowel obstruction in a young adult | journal = Postgraduate Medical Journal | volume = 75 | issue = 881 | pages = 173–5 | date = March 1999 | pmid = 10448501 | pmc = 1741173 | doi = 10.1136/pgmj.75.881.173 }}</ref> However, a false double wall sign can result from two loops of bowel being in contact with one another.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = de Lacey G, Bloomberg T, Wignall BK | title = Pneumoperitoneum: the misleading double wall sign | journal = Clinical Radiology | volume = 28 | issue = 4 | pages = 445–8 | date = July 1977 | pmid = 872511 | doi = 10.1016/s0009-9260(77)80161-x }}</ref> The sign is named after [[Leo George Rigler]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Hirsch M, Cortés C | title = El signo de Leo Rigler: doble pared en neumoperitoneo.| trans-title = The sign of Leo Rigler: double pared in neumoperitoneo. | language = Spanish | journal = Revista chilena de radiología | date = 2009 | volume = 15 | issue = 3 | pages = 152–4 | doi = 10.4067/S0717-93082009000300008 | doi-access = free }}</ref> It is not the same as [[Rigler's triad]].
The ''football sign'' is when the abdomen appears as a large oval [[radiodensity|radiolucency]] reminiscent of an [[football (ball)#American and Canadian football|American football]] on a supine projectional radiograph.<ref name="pmid14990817">{{cite journal | vauthors = Rampton JW | title = The football sign | journal = Radiology | volume = 231 | issue = 1 | pages = 81–2 | date = April 2004 | pmid = 14990817 | doi = 10.1148/radiol.2311011290 }}</ref> The football sign is most frequently seen in [[infant]]s with spontaneous or [[iatrogenic]] [[gastric perforation]] causing pneumoperitoneum. It is also seen in bowel obstruction with secondary perforation, as in [[Hirschprung disease]], midgut volvulus, [[meconium ileus]] and [[intestinal atresia]]. Iatrogenic causes like endoscopic perforation may also give football sign.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}
The ''Cupola sign'' is seen when air is accumulated under the central tendon of the diaphragm.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Sureka B, Bansal K, Arora A | title = Pneumoperitoneum: What to look for in a radiograph? | journal = Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care | volume = 4 | issue = 3 | pages = 477–8 | date = 2015 | pmid = 26288798 | pmc = 4535122 | doi = 10.4103/2249-4863.161369 | doi-access = free }}</ref>

===Differential diagnosis===
As differential diagnoses, a [[subphrenic abscess]], bowel interposed between diaphragm and liver ([[Chilaiditi syndrome]]), and linear [[atelectasis]] at the base of the lungs can simulate free air under the diaphragm on a chest X-ray.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}
==Treatment==
Treatment depends on the cause of the condition.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}
==Terminology==
Pneumoperitoneum can be described as peritoneal emphysema,<ref name="pmid_25803061">{{cite journal | vauthors = Marian K, Monika K, Bartosz K | title = Spontaneous pneumoperitoneum in a patient after ventilation therapy | journal = Polski Przeglad Chirurgiczny | volume = 86 | issue = 12 | pages = 601–3 | date = March 2015 | pmid = 25803061 | doi = 10.1515/pjs-2015-0008 }}</ref> just as [[pneumomediastinum]] can be called mediastinal emphysema, but ''pneumoperitoneum'' is the usual name.
