Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Pulmonary laceration is usually caused by penetrating trauma but it can also be found in non-penetrating trauma. It usually resolves quickly and with few problems if proper and timely treatment is given for which an adequate diagnosis is mandatory. In some cases it may require a surgical approach.
CASE: A 21 year-old male was admitted after a car accident with multiple trauma lesions. He presented with tachycardia and tachypnea. Thorax CT revealed evident pulmonary lacerations. After placing two chest tubes he evolved favorably.
CONCLUSION: Since we can usually find different kinds of injuries in multiple trauma, it is important to distinguish pulmonary lacerations from other types of lesions such as pneumothorax or concussions taking special consideration for mechanically ventilated patients and possible associated complications.
