Traumatic pneumorrhachis is extremely rare, and a review of the English literature has revealed only 31 reported cases. We review the cause and pathophysiology of this unique entity in trauma patients. We also discuss the significance of this entity to the trauma specialist, paying special attention to the differences between air in the subarachnoid ...

Pneumorrhachis or intraspinal air is an increasingly encountered phenomenon in the management of severe trauma. The case of a 23-year-old soldier, who sustained a gunshot wound to the chest, is presented and the subsequent discussion illustrates that while often benign this phenomenon may indicate serious occult injury.
