Abstract
PURPOSE: Primary spontaneous pneumothorax from subplueral bleb disease is an uncommon occurrence in pediatric patients. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case with monozygotic twins presenting at alternating intervals with a single sided spontaneous pneumothorax, only to have it surgically corrected, and to present later with a subsequent contralateral pneumothorax. A case presentation as well as a literature review follows.
