Abstract

Tension pneumocephalus (TP) is a neurological emergency characterized by air in the intracranial cavity. This can present with seizures, neurological deficits, coma, or even cardiac arrest in severe cases. Typically, TP requires urgent/emergent surgical intervention to decompress the intracranial cavity; however, this is not always the case. The aim of this case report is to highlight one such scenario where large-volume TP was treated with, full neurological recovery, using only conservative measures. Keywords: Tension, Pneumocephalus, Oxygen therapy.
