Abstract

Traumatic brain injury presents a major health problem with significant effect on quality of life. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been suggested to improve oxygen supply to the injured brain, this may result in a reduction in patient death and disability because of these additional brain-preserving effects. HBOT is associated with its share of complications; most of them are result of supra-normal atmospheric pressure, we would like to share our observation of few of these patient developing rapidly progressing hydrocephalus which need CSF diversion.
