AB  - Due to the pressure changes during a dive, various traumatic effects can range from mild paresis to death, affecting organs and tissues containing air, especially the middle ear, lung, and sinuses. In this case, the autopsy of a male experienced diver, who was found floating prone on the sea surface and was unresponsive when transported to the hospital, was conducted. After evaluating all the findings, it was concluded that the cause of death was the combined effect of rare carbon monoxide (CO) toxicity and diffuse arterial air embolism due to dysbarism.

N2  - Dalış sırasında basınç değişimine bağlı olarak orta kulak, akciğer ve sinüsler başta olmak üzere hava içeren organ ve dokularda hafif pareziden ölüme kadar değişen çeşitli travmatik etkiler ortaya çıkmaktadır. Olgumuzda, deniz yüzeyinde yüzüstü pozisyonda bulunan ve hastaneye nakledildiğinde yaşam bulgusu olmayan deneyimli erkek dalgıcın otopsisi tarafımızdan yapılmıştır. Tüm bulgular birlikte değerlendirildiğinde; ölüm nedeninin nadir görülen karbonmonoksit toksisitesinin ortak etkisi ve disbarizme bağlı diffüz arteriyel hava embolisi olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
