Pneumoventricle of Unknown Origin. A Personal Experience and Literature Review of a Clinical Enigma

Pneumocephalus (PC) is an uncommon and life-threatening neurological condition. Air within the ventricular system of the brain is also known as Pneumoventricle (PV). It requires emergency treatments to prevent catastrophic neurological outcomes. Head injury is the most common cause of PV, but there are other well-recognized etiologies in case there is no clear radiological evidence of skull discontinuity.
