Abstract The paper presents a case of pulmonary barotrauma in a scuba diver. Swallowing water and respiratory arrest during the ascent caused the trauma. Symptoms from the respiratory system (including the Behnke’s symptom) appeared several minutes after the completion of the dive and were not severe. However, symptoms from the peripheral nervous system, which appeared later, increased rapidly until the seizure episode and loss of consciousness. Hyperbaric treatment was applied in a decompression chamber on board the ship from which the dive was conducted. The treatment resulted in complete remission of symptoms without any consequences.

We report the case of a professional scuba diver who was unable to dive because he began experiencing severe frontal pain on descent. Following endoscopic surgery to open the frontal recess, the man was able to resume diving unrestricted by pain. We discuss the causes and treatment of this complaint, and we suggest that this might be considered a new indication for surgery in a limited number of cases.

Densities of four species of flatfish: rock sole (Lepidopsetta bilineata), English sole (Parophrys vetulus), C-O sole (Pleuronichthys coenosus), and the speckled sanddab (Citharichthys stigmaeus) were determined by using a flounder sampler designed for use by a scuba diver biologist on sand bottom habitats. Under semicontrolled conditions the overall estimate of flatfish numbers was 91.0 flatfish/1000 m2 with a 95% confidence interval of ± 17.5. Biomass was estimated at approximately 7.4 kg/1000 m2.
