Abstract

Trauma to the pediatric chest, occurring in isolation or withpolytrauma, may result in a variety of injuries from minorto life-threatening. Trauma is the first cause of mortalityin children over the age of one in industrialized countries.Injury to the thymus and thymic blood vessels is describedin rare cases. A nine-year-old male patient was admittedto the emergency department after a traffic accident. Thepatient was followed up in the pediatric surgery intensivecare unit due to the life-threatening condition. Patienthad mediastinal widening due to blunt chest trauma.Contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography revealedmediastinal hematoma. A diagnosis of thymic bleedingwas established in the operation.
