Fatal brain stem failure developed suddenly in a 40-year-old male undergoing irrigation of an infected wound consequent to lumbar disc space infection. CT of head revealed posterior fossa pneumacephalus compressing the brain stem, which most likely developed from ingress of nascent oxygen under pressure through a defect in the thecal sac.
