Abstract EN
Tension pneumocephalus is a rare medical emergency.
Spontaneous atraumatic tension pneumocephalus is reported in cases of neoplasm, Valsalva manoeuvres, and air cell hyperpneumatization.
For the first time, we describe a case of atraumatic tension pneumocephalus induced by nasal cannula in a patient with ventriculoperitoneal shunt.
Our case report discusses the possible mechanisms of the tension pneumocephalus in this case.
