Abstract

Background. Anterior thoracic penetrating injuries may result in life-threatening complications. One of these is massive hemothorax as a result of stab wounds to the internal mammary artery. Methods. We reviewed retrospectively ten cases with isolated internal mammary artery injuries resulting from stab wounds during the period of last ten years. Six patients (60%) were admitted in hemorrhagic shock into emergency room. Urgent thoracotomy was performed in all cases. Results. Operative findings were nine complete disruption of IMA (3 right and 6 left), and 1 partial one (on the left). Surgical methods were ligation (n=9) and lateral repair (n=1) . Average hospitalisation time was 7 days. There were no complications or mortality. Conclusions. Isolated IMA injury may be the unique cause of massive hemothorax. Urgent thoracotomy may be life-saving for patients with hemorrhagic shock due to penetrating thoracic injury.

Özet

Amaç: Göğüs ön duvarının delici yaralanmaları, yaşamı tehdit eden komplikasyonlara yol açabilir. Bunlardan biri sol meme atardamarı ya da internal mammarian arterin (İMA) bıçakla yaralanması sonucu olan hemotorakstır. Gereç ve yöntem: Biz, son on yıl içinde, bıçaklanma sonucu izole IMA yaralanması olan on olguyu gözden geçirdik. Acil servise geldiğinde altı (%60) olguda hemorajik şok yardı. Bütün olgulara acil torakotomi yapıldı. Bulgular: Operasyon bulgusu, dokuz olguda (6 sol, 3 sağ) İMA kesişi komplet; Bir olguda ise sol İMA parsiyel kesişi vardı. Cerrahi yöntem dokuz olguda ligasyon, bir olguda lateral onarımdı. Ortalama hastanede kalış zamanı yedi gündü. Mortalité ve morbidité görülmedi. Sonuç: Sadece İMA yaralanmasının masif hemotoraksm sebebi olabileceği akılda tutulmalıdır. Penetran toraks travmasına bağlı massif hemotoraksta acil torakotomi hayat kurtarıcı olabilir.
