AbstractAbstract PDF
Secondary pulmonary resection remains challenging because of the risk of serious complications. A second thoracic surgical procedure in elective settings should prioritize the patient’s recovery potential and functional status. In thoracic oncology, clinical outcomes can be acceptable in selected patients. However, when vital signs are unstable due to traumatic lung injury, selection is not the primary consideration and emergency surgery is required. Thrombocytopenia is a condition in which a patient’s platelet count is abnormally low, diagnosed by complete blood count. In humans, the normal platelet count generally ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets/μL of blood. In posttraumatic patients, thrombocytopenia is often difficult to manage because its causes are diverse. To our knowledge, survival after secondary contralateral lung resection in a patient with thrombocytopenia who previously underwent lobectomy for lung cancer is extremely rare.

AbstractAbstract PDF

Subclavian vein injuries occasionally occur as a sequela of penetrating trauma or vascular access, but have rarely been reported to occur after clavicle fracture. The subclavian vessels are mainly enclosed by the subclavius muscle, the first rib, and the costocoracoid ligament. Therefore, in such cases, subclavian vein injury is rare because of the strcutures surrounding the subclavian vessels. Nevertheless, subclavian vein injuries occasionally show thrombotic manifestations, and thrombosis of the upper limbs constitutes 1–4% of cases of total deep vein thrombosis. Furthermore, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, although vessel injuries have been reported after clavicle or rib fractures and nerve injuries to regions such as the brachial plexus, no case involving delayed presentation of isolated subclavian vein stenosis after clavicle fracture due to blunt trauma has yet been reported.

AbstractAbstract PDF
Although sternal fractures are relatively common, treatment has not been clarified. Thus, the authors report a case of a patient with a sternal fracture associated with a thoracic spinal fracture who had received conservative treatment, but the outcome was not satisfactory.
Summary
Intraoperative Diagnosis of a Pericardial Injury Associated with Multiple Diaphragmatic Ruptures in a Patient with Abdominal Blunt Trauma

AbstractAbstract PDF
A diaphragmatic injury is uncommon, but occurs more frequently with injury to other organs. Particularly, a diaphragmatic accompanied by a pericardial injury is very rare. The authors report a case of incidentally detecting a pericardial injury during surgery for a diaphragmatic injury due to abdominal blunt trauma.
