AI Summary & Key Takeaways

AI Insight
⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

Patients with cardiac murmur detected on physical examination after a blunt chest trauma must be considered as cardiac injury, and in those with signs of ischemia detected on electrocardiography, it should not be forgotten that the coronary artery may be affected.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:In the literature, cardiac response associated with blunt chest trauma in children has been reported generally as case reports, and interventricular septal rupture due to trauma is quite rare.
📊
Key Findings & Data:Interventricular septal rupture can develop even in the absence of visible signs of a trauma because of the flexibility of the chest structure in children.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:Patients with cardiac murmur detected on physical examination after a blunt chest trauma must be considered as cardiac injury, and in those with signs of ischemia detected on electrocardiography, it should not be forgotten that the coronary artery may be affected.

Abstract

In the literature, cardiac response associated with blunt chest trauma in children has been reported generally as case reports, and interventricular septal rupture due to trauma is quite rare. Interventricular septal rupture can develop even in the absence of visible signs of a trauma because of the flexibility of the chest structure in children. In the present case, a seven-year-old boy with interventricular septal rupture at the mid-muscular region and left ventricle pseudoaneurysm developed due to injury to the left anterior descending coronary artery after a traffic accident is reported. Patients with cardiac murmur detected on physical examination after a blunt chest trauma must be considered as cardiac injury, and in those with signs of ischemia detected on electrocardiography, it should not be forgotten that the coronary artery may be affected.

Özet

Künt göğüs travması ile ilişkili kardiyak etkilenme, literatürde çocuklarda genellikle olgu sunumları şeklinde bildirilmiştir ve travmaya bağlı interventriküler septum rüptürü gelişmesi oldukça nadirdir. Çocuklarda göğüs kafesi yapılarının esnek olması nedeniyle görünür bir travma belirtisi olmadan da interventriküler septum rüptürü gelişebilmektedir. Bu yazıda, trafik kazası sonrası sol ön inen koroner arter zedelenmesine bağlı mid-müsküler bölgede interventriküler septum rüptürü ve sol ventrikülde psödoanevrizma gelişen 7 yaşında bir erkek olgu sunuldu. Künt göğüs travması sonrasında fiziksel incelemede üfürüm tespit edilen hastalarda kardiyak zedelenme olabileceği düşünülmeli ve elektrokardiyografide iskemi bulguları saptananlarda koroner arterlerin de etkilenmiş olabileceği unutulmamalıdır.
