Abstract

Bronchial rupture may rarely be seen after blunt thoracic traumas. As it is difficult to diagnose, there may be delays in the treatment. A 20-year-old male patient was admitted to our emergency clinic after an in-car traffic accident. Bilateral tube thoracostomy was performed for bilateral hemopneumothorax. The radiological and bronchoscopic investigations revealed left main bronchus rupture. We report this case as the bronchial rupture was localized on the left, which is a more uncommon localization, and left pneumonectomy was performed due to the dehiscence of bronchial anastomosis as a result of lung parenchymal infection.

Özet

Künt toraks travmaları sonrası nadiren bronş rüptürü görülebilir. Tanı koymak oldukça zordur ve bu nedenle tedavide gecikmeler olabilir. Yirmi yaşında erkek hasta araç içi trafik kazası sonrası acil kliniğimize başvurdu. İki taraflı hemopnömotoraks nedeni ile iki taraflı tüp torakostomi uygulandı. Radyolojik ve bronkoskopik incelemeler sol ana bronşta rüptür varlığını ortaya koydu. Olgumuzu bronş rüptürünün daha az görülen sol yerleşimli olması ve akciğer parenkim enfeksiyonu sonucu bronşiyal anastomoz yetmezliğine bağlı olarak sol pnömonektomi uygulanması nedeni ile sunmaktayız.
