Dysbaric osteonecrosis: Case series osteonecrosis in divers
Listen to this summary
The authors investigate the occurrence of dysbaric osteonecrosis (DON) in divers, specifically examining its potential link to previous decompression sickness (DCS) in the context of red coral diving in Algeria. Through three case reports, they highlight the severity of DON and advocate for early MRI evaluations in divers experiencing musculoskeletal pain post-DCS to identify and manage potential osteo-medullary damage before it progresses to osteonecrosis.
