Detection of free abdominal air requires in most cases immediate surgical intervention. However, there may be situations, where invasive procedures are not indicated. We present a case of asymptomatic pneumatosis intestinalis and free abdominal air in a patient with Aids. Pneumatosis intestinalis is a rare entity with accumulation of subserosal or submucosal gas occurring in the small or large bowel. It has been reported in a variety of gastrointestinal disorders, in Aids, after transplantation, with steroid use, and in association with leukemia, lymphoma, vasculitis, collagen vascular disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
