Pneumocephalus with headache complicating labour epidural analgesia: should we still be using air?

O O Nafiu1, J C Urquhart.

Pneumocephalus is a rare complication of epidural block which typically occurs when the loss of resistance to air technique is used to identify the epidural space. We present a case of pneumocephalus with headache in a parturient following apparently uncomplicated labour epidural analgesia.
