conclusions negative pressure inspiration is significantly impaired by an unstable chest wall. restoring mechanical stability of the fractured ribs improves respiratory outcomes similar to baseline values. results a wide variation in the mean inspiratory volumes and peak flows were measured between specimens; however, the effect of a flail chest wall and the subsequent internal fixation of the ...
objective: thoracic trauma may be a life-threatening condition. flail chest is a severe chest injury with high mortality rates. surgery is not frequently performed and, in literature, data are controversial. the authors report their experience in the treatment of flail chest by an extracortical internal-external stabilization technique with kirshner’s wires (k-wires). methods: from 2010 to 2015...
Background Flail chest is the most serious complication that may occur after thoracic trauma. In this article, we present a case of flail chest caused by blunt chest trauma, which presented dramatic clinical improvement following rib fixation and chest wall reconstruction. Case Description A 53-year-old male patient with flail chest because of the trauma who had been followed in intensive care ...
Objective: Thoracic trauma may be a life-threatening condition. Flail chest is a severe chest injury with high mortality rates. Surgery is not frequently performed and, in Literature, data are controversial. The authors report their experience in the treatment of flail chest by an extracortical internal-external stabilization technique with Kirshner’s wires (K-wires). <...
Flail chest is a rare complication in pediatric patients with blunt chest trauma. There is no general consensus on which treatment is most appropriate for flail chest in pediatric patients, although it has been reported that surgical fixation is associated with beneficial outcomes for flail chest in adults. The present report described two pediatric cases of flail chest, which was rare in pedia...
BACKGROUND Multiple rib fractures cause significant pain and potential for chest wall instability. Despite an emerging trend of surgical management of flail chest injuries, there are no studies examining the effect of rib fracture fixation on respiratory function. OBJECTIVES Using a novel full thorax human cadaveric breathing model, we sought to explore the effect of flail chest injury and su...
We present the case of a patient who sustained a massive flail chest from a snowmobile accident. All ribs of the right side of the chest were fractured. Nonoperative management was unsuccessful. Previously reported methods of rib stabilization were precluded given the lack of stable chest wall elements to fixate or anchor the flail segments. We present a novel surgical treatment in which Nuss b...
BACKGROUND The chest cage is a common target for traumatic damage. Although relatively rare, it is considered to be a serious condition with significant reported mortalities. As most flail injuries are accompanied by severe extrathoracic injuries, it is often difficult to pinpoint a single injury responsible for the patient's death. AIM To investigate the factors related to mortality when fla...
