Abstract
Spontaneous pneumothorax is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition during pregnancy. We discuss a case of recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax during a single pregnancy. The pneumothorax occurred twice during the pregnancy in the second and third trimesters. Both pneumothoraxes were managed conservatively as due to the low prevalence of this condition, management guidelines are few. We report our management of recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax during pregnancy to support the literature and current guidelines.
