abstract="Lightning strike injury may present with a variety of injuries including burns and the sequelae of falls following the strike, and any pneumocephalus is usually as a result of a basal skull fracture following a fall. We present a case of pneumocephalus without skull fracture following lightning strike in a 58-year-old male. He suffered bilateral tympanic membrane rupture and the air entered his skull via a congenital defect in petrous tegmen tympani. The patient suffered a range of neurologic symptoms that were not fully resolved six months following injury.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
