N2  - Camel racing is a relatively new sport in Australia. A 52 year old woman fell from her camel during a country race. Although she was wearing an approved equestrian helmet, she suffered a skull fracture and a life-threatening extradural haematoma. Her treatment highlights the key issues of management of head injuries in remote places. A paramount requirement is close collaboration between country medical practitioner, neurosurgeon and retrieval specialist.
