Spontaneous pneumocephalus associated with pneumosinus dilatans.

Jung-Sup Lee1, Yong-Sook Park, Jeong-Taik Kwon, Jong-Sik Suk.   

Abstract

The majority of cases of pneumocephalus are secondary to trauma or medical intervention. Spontaneous, non-traumatic pneumocephalus is an uncommon condition. Most cases of spontaneous pneumocephalus require surgery. However, if there is no evidence of infection or cerebrospinal fluid leak, bed rest and follow-up imaging is an alternative treatment. Herein, we report a 31-year-old man with spontaneous pneumocephalus associated with pneumosinus dilatans.
