An iatrogenic pneumothorax is a complication, and the doctor must be honest about it. Treat it (chest tube), then explain to the family (the ICU patient cannot be informed directly) what happened and what the plan is. Respecting the patient's autonomy means being honest and giving the necessary information. Hiding the complication (A, D) or lying that it was there before (C) is dishonest and unethical.
