Abstract

Pneumopericardium is the presence of air in the pericardial space. It may be seen in the context with severe blunt chest trauma. Usually, pneumopericardium is self-limiting and requiring no specific therapy. However, a continuous monitoring of the electrocardiography and the blood pressure is necessary at an intermediate care unit. We report a 74 year-old-man had been presented with Pneumopericardium, after a car striking. He had bilateral pneumohematothoraces, pneumomediastinum and bilateral multiple rib fractures. Pneumopericardium was diasappeared without surgical management like written in english literature. Frequent cardiac and vital signs monitoring and general support treatment were successful in our treatment.

Özet

Pnömoperikardium, pericardial boşlukta hava bulunmasıdır. Ciddi, künt toraks travmalarında oluşabilir. Pnömoperikardium, genellikle kendi kendini sınırlar ve özel bir tedaviye ihtiyaç duyulmaz. Bununla beraber, elektrokardiyografi ve kan basıncının sürekli olarak monitörize edildiği yoğun bakım ünitesinde takibi gerekmektedir. 74 yaş erkek hastada; araç dışı trafik kazası sonrasında oluşan, bilateral hemopnömotoraks, bilateral seri kot fraktürleri, pnömomediastinum’un eşlik ettiği pnömoperikardium vakasını sunmaktayız. Literatür bilgilerine paralel olarak, cerrahi bir girişime gerek kalmadan hastanın pnömoperikardiumu kaybolmuştur. Tedavi protokolü olarak; yakın vital bulgu ve kardiak monitörizasyon takipi altında genel destek tedavisi uygulanmış ve yeterli olmuştur.
