Abstract

Zolnourian A, McColgan P, Sherlala K and Kuruvath S

Pneumorrhachis (Intraspinal air or intraspinal pneumocele) is a rare association with closed head injury. Iatrogenic causes are well known and are often secondary to diagnostic procedures. However, there are only a few case reports in the literature following trauma. We present a case of traumatic pneumorrhachis following a head injury with base of skull fracture. This was treated conservatively and patient made a full recovery.
