Delayed recognition of Type II decompression sickness in a diver with chronic atrial fibrillation
CONCLUSION: The presence of symptoms attributed to a stroke immediately after a scuba dive should not deter a trial of HBO2 therapy. The delay in starting HBO2 therapy is concerning and perhaps the reason recovery was delayed and the need for repetitive HBO2 therapies.PMID:35580489

Oxygen chamber can boost brain repair
(American Friends of Tel Aviv University) Through the use of hyperbaric, oxygen-rich chambers, Tel Aviv University's Dr. Shai Efrati has found a way to restore a significant amount of neurological function in brain tissue thought to be chronically damanged by stroke, traumatic injury, and metabolic disorder -- even years after the original injury.

Portal venous air embolization.
Abstract To the Editor A 74-year-old lady was diagnosed with an inoperable gallbladder carcinoma with peritoneal deposits and acute cholangitis. As a palliative procedure, the patient was taken up for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) which was performed under conscious sedation with the patient placed in a semi-prone position. 7F-biliary stents were successfully placed in the bile duct, however, note was made of inadvertent air entry into the portal vein. Spot-radiograph taken with the patient in semi-prone position (Figure-1) reveals an iatrogenic pneumovenogram (arrows). The procedure was im...

Combined Treatment of Methylprednisolone Pulse and Memantine Hydrochloride Prompts Recovery from Neurological Dysfunction and Cerebral Hypoperfusion in Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: A Case Report
A 49-year-old healthy man developed sudden unconsciousness under inadequate ventilation. Blood gas analysis showed carboxyhemoglobin of 7.3%. After normobaric oxygen therapy, he recovered completely 7 days later. At 3 weeks after carbon monoxide (CO) exposures, memory and gait disturbances appeared. Neurological examination revealed Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 5 of 30 points, leg hyper-reflexia with Babinski signs, and Parkinsonism. Brain fluid-attenuated inversion recovery imaging disclosed symmetric hypointense lesions in the thalamus and the globus pallidus, and hyperintense lesions in the cerebral w...

An Unusual Cause of Altered Mental Status: Recurrent Cerebral Air Embolism from Atrial-Esophageal Fistula (P2.119)
Conclusion:The incidence of stroke secondary to air emboli is rare but a known complication of AEF's. Review of literature showed no reports of recurrent air embolism following successful treatment with HBO and repair of AEF. It is important to consider air embolism in any patient with a history of AEF, regardless of prior treatment.Disclosure: Dr. Ahmed has nothing to disclose. Dr. Myers has nothing to disclose.

Unusual Presentation of Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning (P6.024)
CONCLUSIONCO poisoning should be included in the differential diagnosis of patients found to have isolated bilateral thalamic involvement. MR imaging undertaken in acute setting aids in management and prognosis. Follow-up is required to assess for the development of Delayed Neuropsychiatric Syndrome, which can cause changes in personality, memory and gait.Disclosure: Dr. Bains has nothing to disclose.

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment in the experimental spinal cord injury model
Spinal cord trauma is a major cause of mortality and morbidity. Although no known treatment for spinal cord injury exists, a limited number of effective treatment modalities and procedures are available that improve secondary injury. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment has been used to assist in neurologic recovery after cranial injury or ischemic stroke.

In search of a treatment for radiation-induced optic neuropathy
Opinion statement Radiation-induced optic neuropathy (RON) is an iatrogenic complication that causes severe, irreversible vision loss in one or both eyes within the months to years following radiation therapy. Posterior RON is a rare but devastating toxicity of radiation applied to the visual pathways to treat paranasal sinus and skull base tumors. Anterior RON is an unavoidable consequence of proton beam irradiation or ophthalmic plaque treatment of orbital, choroidal, or retinal tumors. Various treatments aimed at stabilizing and ideally reversing vision loss have been investigated but only in small cases serie...
