Abstract
Presence of air within the labyrinth constitutes the term Pneumo-labyrinth. Pneumo-labyrinth may be associated with perilymph fistula. Most commonly trauma involving the otic capsule is associated with pneumolabyrinth. Depending on the location of the air bubble within the inner ear pneumolabyrinth can be subdivided into pneumocochlea and pneumovestibule, in which air is present in the cochlea and vestibule respectively [1]. In this case report we discuss a. regarding a case of vertigo b. management of pneumo-labyrinth and
