    Professional divers often show aseptic bone necroses, a condition affecting 32 out of 41 examined. Some divers can continue working with depth limitations, while others require temporary leave due to severe changes.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Diving Medicine
    • Radiology

    Context:

    • Professional diving involves significant physiological stress.
    • Dispensary investigations are crucial for monitoring diver health.
    • Aseptic bone necroses are a known risk in occupational diving.

    Purpose:

    • To report on dispensary findings in professional divers.
    • To identify radiological changes indicative of aseptic bone necroses.
    • To discuss clinical and radiological diagnostic challenges.

    Summary:

    • Radiological examinations revealed aseptic bone necroses in 32 of 41 professional divers.
    • 18 divers had polyostotic (multiple bone) involvement, and 14 had monostotic (single bone) lesions.
    • Findings ranged from asymptomatic to severe, impacting work capacity.

    Impact:

    • Divers with minor changes can work with depth restrictions (up to 13m).
    • Individuals with severe aseptic bone necroses must temporarily cease diving activities.
    • Highlights the importance of radiological screening for occupational health in divers.
