Pneumorrhachis of the entire spinal canal [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2005 Pneumorrhachis (PR)—the curious phenomenon of intraspinal air—is an exceptional radiographic finding. In this report the first case of PR of the entire spine is presented. A 19 year old man with a history of diabetes mellitus and bronchial asthma was admitted because of cough, fever, nausea, and vomiting for 3 days. Physical examination and laboratory
