[Gas embolism and hyperbaric oxygen treatment during pregnancy: a case report and a review of the literature].

We report the first case of a pregnant woman presenting with a paradoxical air embolism due to accidental removal of a central venous catheter. Secondary right hemiplegia associated with a confused state justified emergency hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which was followed by complete neurological recovery. The aim of this case report is to assess risk situations of gas embolism during pregnancy and puerperium, as well as indications and fetal effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
