Travmatik hemotoraks ile başvuran 296 olgunun analizi

Amaç: Travmatik hemotoraks gelişen olgularda tedavi yaklaşımları belirlemek. Çalışma planı: 2004-2009 yılları arasında kliniğimize travmatik hemotoraks tanısıyla kabul edilen 296 hasta(240 erkek, 56 kadın; ortalama yaş 40,12) geriye dönük incelendi. Bulgular: Hemotoraksın en sık nedeni travma idi (n¬-155,%49.52). En çok görülen travma trafik kazalarına bağlı hemotorakslar idi. Bunu 93 hasta ile(%29.71)kesici –delici alet yaralanmaları izlemekteydi. Ateşli silah yaralanmaları ise kırk sekiz vaka idi (%15.33). Travmatik hemotorakslı olguların %40 inde eşlik eden yaralanmalar mevcuttu. En sık görülen yaralanma ise %21 ile kafa travmaları idi. İkiyüzbir olguya sadece tüp torakostomi uygulandı (%67.90) Kırk hastaya torakotomi uygulandı(%12.77), bunları oniki sine acil şartlarda torakotomi uygulandı. Torakotomi sırasında 23 hastada parankim laserasyonu, 2 hastada internal mamarian arter yaralanması, 2 hastada atrium yaralanması,12 hastada interkostal yaralanma,1 hastada torakal aorta yaralanması saptandı. Hastanede kalış süresi ortalama 8.2 gün idi. Mortalite beş olguda (%1.6) görüldü. Sonuç: Travmatik Hemotoraks tanısı hızla koyularak tedavi edilmesi gereken acil bir durumdur. Tedavi yaklaşımları olarak nedenlerine göre önce tüp torakostomi uygulanmalıdır. Torakotomi konservatif tedavinin yeterli olmadığı durumlarda uygulanmalıdır.

Analysis of the 296 cases accepted traumatic hemothorax

Purpose: We evaluated treatment approaches of patients with traumatic hemothorax . Methods We retrospectively analyzed 296 patients (240 males, 56 females: mean age 40.12 years)recieved treatment for hemothorax between 2004 and 2009. Results: The most common etiology of hemothorax was trauma (n=155,%49.52). The most common traumatic cause was traffic accidents,followed by penetrating injuries(%29.71) 93 patients. 48 patients due a hemothorax with a gun injuries (%15.33) Traumatic hemothorax was associated with accompanying injuries (%40).The most common being cranial ınjuries (%21). Thoracentesis was performed in five patients (%1.5). Tube thoracostomy was inserted 201 patients only (%67.90). Thoracotomy was performed in 40 patients (%12.77)of which 12 patients required emergency thoracotomy. During thoracotomy, parenchymal laceration was observed in 23 patients, internal mamarian artery injury in 2 patients, atrium laserations in 2 patients, intercostal vascular injury in 12 patients and thoracal aort injury in one patient. The mean hospital stay was 8.2 days. Mortality occured in five patients (%1.6) Traumatic: Hemothorax is an emergency situation that requires rapid diagnosis and treat. The first therapatic attemp must be tube thoracostomy if the conservative treatment fails, thoracotomy was performed rapidly.
