Abstract

Decompression sickness may include spinal cord damage, which sometimes persists. Casual divers are exposed, as well as professionals. In this study we have reviewed the clinical records of divers admitted with symptoms of spinal cord injuries in our area in the last 6 years. This study is divided into two groups: those who fully recovered (19 divers) and those with neurological sequelae (12 divers).
