Abstract

Although it is rare, posttraumatic tracheobronchial injury is a potentially life-threatening condition. It is mostly seen after blunt injuries, cases due to penetrating injuries consist only 6 to 10%. About 75 to 80% of penetrating tracheal injury occurs in cervical trachea. Surgery is tha traditional appro- ach in the treatment, but conservative treatment may be advised for some patients selected on the basis of physical and endoscopic findings. Here in this paper, a patient suffering from pellets wound affecting the servical trachea and treated conservatively was reported.

Özet

ÖZET Travma sonrasında trakeobronşiyal yaralanma nadir görülmekle birlikte yaşamı potansiyel olarak tehdit eden bir patolojidir. Havayollarının travmatik hasarı sıklıkla künt travma sonucudur, penetran yaralanmalar tüm olguların sadece %6-10’unu oluşturur. Penetran trakea yaralanmalarının %75-80’i servikal trakeada görülür. Tedavide cerrahi yaklaşımlar ön planda olmakla birlikte, klinik ve endoskopik bulgular göz önüne alınarak bazı seçilmiş vakalara konservatif tedavi uygulanması önerilmektedir. Yazıda saçma yaralanması yüzünden boyun bölgesinde penetran trakea hasarı meydana gelen ve konservatif tedavi uygulanan bir hasta sunulmaktadır.
