Hyponatremia and Pneumothorax

Has anyone ever seen a case of hyponatremia due to pneumothorax.  Had a patient who developed profound hyponatremia without a reasonable cause (no head injury, meds etc).  Has some rib fx, scap fx, transverse process fx and a Pneumothorax.   

When reviewing the literature, a cause of SIADH is pneumothorax.  If so Why?  Any ideas. 

Thanks
