Objective & Hypothesis:Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of areduction in the cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) on mortality innewborns with pneumothorax.Methods: Newborns with pneumothorax, who were admittedto our neonatal intensive care unit, were included in the study.The cardiothoracic ratio was calculated by dividing the transversecardiac diameter by maximum internal thoracic diameter.Results: Of 7909 infants admitted to our neonatal intensive careunit from September 2006 to September 2017, a total of 82(1.03%) newborns had pneumothorax.

Özet
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı pnömotoraks gelişen yenidoğan hastalarda kardiyotorasik oran (KTO) azalma oranının mortaliteyi belirleme üzerine etkisinin ortaya konulmasıdır. Yöntemler: Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitemize pnömotoraks ile takip edilen yenidoğan bebekler çalışmaya dahil edildi. Kardiyotorasik oran hesabı göğüs grafisinden mediastenin ortasından çizilen dikey bir çizgiye kalbin en sağ ve en sol noktasından çizilen dik çizgilerin toplamları, diyafragmaya teğet olarak çizilip kostaların iç sınırlarına kadar uzanan toraks çapına bölünerek bulundu. Bulgular: Eylül 2006’dan Eylül 2017 tarihleri arasında yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesine 7909 bebek başvurdu, 82’sinde (%1,03) pnömotoraks gelişti. Genel mortalite oranı %30 idi. Ölen hastalar, hayatta kalanlara göre daha düşük KTO’ya sahiptiler (sırasıyla, 0,39±0,056 ve 0,44±0,048, p
