It's Like a CPC
• A skydiver lost control parachuting and landed in shallow water. At scene the attending doctor noted he was suffering only from a pain in his right knee. The patient denied LOC or any neurological symptoms and was referred to the nearest trauma center for further evaluation.

It's Like a CPC
• At the trauma center further interrogation revealed the patient had fallen on his right side and twisted his right knee. He had no past medical history, took no medication and was an occasional smoker and consumer of alcohol.

It's Like a CPC
• On examination the patient was hemodynamically stable, GCS 15 with a pain score of 4/10.
• He had a swollen right knee which was tender on the lateral aspect without suggestion of neurovascular injury. A radiograph of the right showed avulsion of the lateral tibial plateau and fracture of the right head of fibula. Findings were confirmed on CT within 3 hours of injury.

It's Like a CPC
• The patient was sent for blood testing following the CT, at this stage his condition deteriorated. He became irritable and began salivating excessively.
• A primary survey was repeated showing a patent airway, good bilateral air entry to the chest with saturations of 100% on 10L of oxygen via mask. His blood pressure was 127/82 with a heart rate of 86 BPM. By this point he was GCS 13 with bilateral size 3mm pupils which were reactive to light.

Final Diagnosis
• Post-Traumatic right middle cerebral artery thrombosis.
• Re-interviewing the MD at the scene revealed that the patient had landed with the parachute twisted around his neck at impact, causing compression of the right side of his neck.
