The correct answer is: A) pontine respiratory centers

The respiratory centre in the pons is responsible for generating and maintaining the rhythm of respiration. Besides this elementary function, it also has the ability to adjust respiration rhythm in c response to physiological changes. Respiratory centre consists of three major respiratory groups of neurons:

•  The dorsal respiratory group (DRG)- initiates inspiration (inhalation)

• the ventral respiratory group (VRG)-responsible for exhalation

• Pontine respiratory group- includes the pneumotaxic (controls both the rate and the pattern of breathing) and apneustic centers (promotes inhalation by sending signals to dorsal group).

inn [45]

The term "pneumocephalus" refers to the condition in which air is present in the cranial cavity.

What happens in pneumocephalus?

  • Increased intracranial pressure causes tension pneumocephalus, a neurosurgical emergency that can cause headaches, seizures, loss of consciousness, and even death.
  • Clinically separating the two entities is difficult but essential.
  • Tension pneumocephalus following skull base surgery was found to be a rare phenomenon with just eleven cases described, according to a survey of the literature on PubMed/MEDLINE.
  • After treatment, the majority of patients experienced full symptom relief.
  • Following skull base surgery, tension pneumocephalus is a potential complication that clinicians should be aware of.
  • An understanding of imaging characteristics and a high level of suspicion are necessary for accurate diagnosis. Rapid management is essential to avoid potentially disastrous effects.
