Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare our clinical experience and results of the literature. Material and Method: One hundred and thirty-four patients with chest trauma who presented to the emergency units between the years November 2006-August 2010 were assessed retrospectively. Results: One hundred and nine (81.3%) of the patients were male and 25 (18.6%) of the patients were female. Ninety-six (71.6%) of the patients had blunt and 38 (28.3%) had penetrating trauma. The most common cause of the blunt trauma was traffic accidents, as occurred in (68.7%) patients. Penetrating traumas were mostly caused by assaults with sharp devices, as occurred in (57.8%) patients. Accompanying traumas were recorded in 46 (34.3%) patients as head (18.6%) and extremity (15.7%) traumas mostly. The most common chest pathology was rib fracture (70.8%). Morbidity was 8.0% and mortality, 0.7%. Mean hospital stay time was 8.2 days (2-16 days). Conclusion: In thorax trauma patients, the correct diagnosis and appropriate surgical approach is the basis of diminishing the morbidity and mortality of those injuries.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmadaki amacımız klinik deneyimlerimizi ve sonuçlarımızı literatür verileri ile karşılaştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kasım 2006 ile Ağustos 2010 tarihleri arasında acil servise başvuran 134 toraks travmalı hasta, retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Olguların 109’u (%81.3) erkek, 25’i (%18.6) kadın hastalardı. Doksan altı (%71.6) olguda künt toraks travması, 38 (%28.3) olguda penetre toraks travması saptandı. Künt toraks travmalarında en sık (%68.7) gözlenen etyolojik faktör trafik kazaları iken, penetre toraks travmalarında ise delici kesici alet yaralanması’idi (%57.8). Eşlik eden yaralanmalar toplam 46 (%34.3) olguda saptanırken, en sık görülenler kafa (%18.6) ve ekstremite (%15.7) travmaları idi. En sık rastlanan toraks patolojisi, kosta fraktürleri (%70.8) idi. Olgularımızda morbidite oranı %80 ve mortalite oranı %0.7 olarak saptandı. Ortalama yatış süresi 8.2 (2-16) gün olarak hesaplandı. Sonuç: Toraks travmalarında doğru tanı ve uygun cerrahi yaklaşım bu tür yaralanmalarda morbidite ve mortalitenin azalmasının temelini oluşturur. (Tur Toraks Der 2012; 13: 56-9)
