A case of pneumoscrotum after a suicide jump with blunt chest trauma and chest tube placement is reported. Pneumoscrotum itself has little clinical importance, but it is essential for the clinician to determine the origin of the air, and a careful search for the source of air is necessary. Three possible routes of air in the pneumoscrotum are reviewed. Many reported cases, including this case, had a cause distant from the pelvis: air dissected subcutaneously to the scrotum because of pneumothorax, tube thoracostomy, and air leak combined with ventilatory resuscitation efforts.
