Pneumocephalus corticalis und Diabetes insipidus traumaticus

Abstract

The author gives a description of the course of the disease in two cases of frontal bone fracture with opening of the frontal sinus. In the first case, a subdural pneumocephalus developed immediately after injury, which resorbed within 17 days without intervention and gave no morbid phenomena. In the second case, it came to cortical pneumocephalus infection, which healed after surgical dissection and drainage.
