After the experts at the hospital had a look at the man¡¯s CT scans, they concluded that he was suffering from tension pneumocephalus. It is a rare but can be a life-threatening neurological condition. The condition can result in a dangerous increase in intracranial pressure.
After looking at the man¡¯s brain, the doctors found that he was suffering from the condition because of the pair of chopsticks that were stuck inside his brain through his nose. The Head of the Department of Neurosurgery, Dr. Nguyen Van Man, claimed that the case was ¡°very rare¡± indeed.
