摘要

BACKGROUND: Pneumocephalus can be a cause of headache, but is easily overlooked in some clinical circumstances. CASE STUDY: A 35-year-old woman developed severe headache of abrupt onset during an epidural blood patch procedure done for a post-lumbar puncture headache. A brain CT scan showed subarachnoid air even though there was no evidence of a dural puncture having occurred during the procedure. RESULTS: The experience of our patient, and a review of the literature suggests that air injected into the epidural space during use of the "loss of resistance" technique can enter the subarachnoid space if a dural puncture site from a previous lumbar puncture is present. CONCLUSIONS: Pneumocephalus should be considered as a potential cause for a severe headache occurring in association with epidural procedures, and also in a number of other clinical settings. Use of a high inspired air oxygen concentration can hasten absorption of an intracranial air collection.
