Pneumocephalus is collection of gas or air within the cranial cavity. This has been described with trauma, cranial surgery, air embolism, and rarely as a result of central nervous system infections. We report a case of diffuse pneumocephalus secondary to Enterobacter cloacae meningitis. The diagnosis was suspected by cranial ultrasound and confirmed by computer tomography.
气颅是指颅腔内气体或空气的积聚。这种情况在创伤、颅脑手术、空气栓塞时有所描述，很少由中枢神经系统感染引起。我们报告一例因阴沟肠杆菌脑膜炎继发的弥漫性气颅病例。通过头颅超声怀疑诊断，并经计算机断层扫描确诊。
