Spontaneous pneumothorax is relatively common in clinical practice and occurs more frequently in young, tall thin men, and in smokers. However, simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax is a rare clinical condition that often presents with significant respiratory distress. We report a case of simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax in a 41-year-old woman who presented with chest pain and a dry cough followed by mild dyspnea for two weeks. She received simultaneous bilateral tube thoracostomies and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery during hospitalization. She was discharged in relatively good condition on the 23rd hospital day.
