Pneumocephalus--an unreported risk of Valsalva's manoeuvre following cochlear implantation.

D Gillett1, J Almeyda, D Whinney, L Savy, J M Graham.   

Abstract

We describe a case of pneumocephalus as an unusual early postoperative complication following cochlear implantation. The aetiology of this condition we attribute to the patient's habit of 'ear popping' using Valsalva's manoeuvre.
