    Abstract:
    Acute compression dislocation syndrome was reproduced in rabbits by means of epidural brain compression with a balloon. After elimination of brain compression the main group were treated by HBO whereas the control group did not receive HBO. The use of HBO resulted in a decrease of the lethality in hyperextension manifestations. Using the total water measurement in the brain the main group was discovered to have a decrease of brain edema at different times, associated with compression and eliminated compression thereof. Microscopy revealed a reduction of pericellular, perivascular and subependymal edema as well as of edema of vascular plexus and venous brain plethora under the influence of HBO.
