Abstract

Tension gastrothorax is a very rare but potentially fatal clinical condition in which the stomach that herniates through a diaphragmatic defect into the thorax is massively distended by trapped air. It leads to severe symptoms due to the compression of the lung and mediastinum. A 27-year-old female, who had no prior trauma history, applied to the emergency service with the complaint of respiratory disorder, and was consulted by the department of thoracic surgery. Thorax CT revealed presence of gastrothorax in the left hemithorax. Thus, the patient went into cardiopulmonary arrest and was resuscitated. Emergency thoracotomy was performed, abdominal organs were reduced and diaphragmatic defect was repaired. She was discharged on the fifth postoperative day without any complications

Özet

Bir diyafragmatik defektten toraksa herniye olarak masif distansiyona uğrayan mide dokusunun neden olduğu tansiyon gastrotoraks oldukça nadir, ancak ölümcül olabilen bir klinik durumdur. Akciğer ve mediasten basısına bağlı ciddi semptomlara neden olur. Nefes darlığı şikayeti ile acil servise başvuran ve travma öyküsü olmayan 27 yaşında kadın hasta, ilk değerlendirme sonrası göğüs cerrahisi kliniğine konsülte edildi. Toraks bilgisayarlı tomografide sol hemitoraksda gastrotoraks tespit edildi. Hastanın arrest olması nedeniyle resüsitasyona başlandı ve acil sol torakotomi yapılarak abdominal organlar redükte edildi ve diyafragmatik defekt primer onarıldı. Hasta operasyon sonrası beşinci gün sorunsuz şekilde taburcu edildi.
