title: [Rare case of brain damage in a primary decompression sickness in a diver].
abstract: Pressure disease causes very infrequently multifocal injury to the cerebral hemispheres with resulting organic brain disease. The described case was observed in a diver who after correctly performed decompression without any evident faults in decompressions during several years of diving suffered diffuse, multifocal injury to the cerebral hemispheres and right vestibular nuclei. The authors stress the fact that decompression tables differ in various countries. There is no uniform safety decompression table for the divers. Besides that, such factors as individual sensitivity and resistance of the diver to the effects of raised pressure should be taken into consideration.
