Résumé

Pneumocephalus is defined as air in the intracranial space. It is commonly caused by traumatic skull fractures and is diagnosed by head plain computer tomography. Treatment involves initial stabilization of vital signs and surgical intervention if symptoms do not resolve. We report a unique case of pneumocephalus following sneeze suppression.
