Barrel chest generally refers to a broad, deep chest found on a man. A man described as barrel chested will usually have a naturally large ribcage, very round torso, large lung capacity , and will potentially have lots of upper body strength. It can sometimes be a sign of acromegaly a syndrome resulting from excess levels of Growth Hormone in the body . Barrel chest also refers to an increase in the anterior posterior diameter of the chest wall resembling the shape of a barrel, most often associated with emphysema . There are two main causes of the barrel chest phenomena in emphysema Increased compliance of the lungs leads to the accumulation of air pockets inside the thoracic cavity. Increased compliance of the lungs increases the intrathoracic pressure. This increase in pressure allows the chest wall to naturally expand outward. ref name MayoClinic cite web url http www.mayoclinic.com health barrel chest AN00359 title Barrel chest What causes it?

Image LungVolume.jpg thumb 400px Lung Volumes Functional Residual Capacity FRC is the volume of air present in the lungs , specifically the parenchyma tissues, at the end of passive expiration . At FRC, the elastic recoil forces of the lungs and chest wall are equal but opposite and there is no exertion by the thoracic diaphragm diaphragm or other respiratory muscles. FRC is the sum of Expiratory reserve volume Expiratory Reserve Volume ERV and Residual Volume RV and measures approximately 2400 ml in a 70 kg, average sized male. It can not be estimated through spirometry , since it includes the residual volume. In order to measure RV precisely, one would need to perform a test such as nitrogen washout , Helium dilution technique helium dilution or body plethysmography . A lowered or elevated FRC is often an indication of some form of respiratory disease . For instance, in emphysema , the lungs are more compliance physiology compliant and therefore are more susceptible to the outward recoil forces of the chest wall. Emphysema patients often have noticeably broader chests because they are breathing at larger volumes. The helium dilution technique is a common way of measuring the functional residual capacity of the lungs.

Causes Wiktionary The sound can be created when two rough surfaces in the human body come into contact for example, in osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis when the cartilage around joints has eroded away and the joint ends grind against one another, or when the fracture surfaces of two broken bone s rub together. Crepitus is a common sign of bone fracture . In soft tissues, crepitus can be produced when gas is introduced into an area where it normally isn t present. The term can also be used when describing the sounds produced by lung conditions such as interstitial lung disease these are also referred to as rales . Crepitus is often loud enough to be heard by the human ear , although a stethoscope may be needed to detect instances caused by respiratory diseases. In times of poor surgical practice, post surgical complications involved Anaerobic organism anaerobic infection by Clostridium perfringens strain biology strains , which can cause gas gangrene in Tissue biology tissues , also giving rise to crepitus. Subcutaneous crepitus or surgical emphysema is a crackling sound resulting from subcutaneous emphysema , or air trapped in the subcutaneous tissue s.
