INTRODUCTION: This review aims to provide an overview of diagnosing and managing traumatic haemothorax for young surgeons.
CONTENT: Of 27,333 polytrauma patients in Germany in 2021, 35 % were admitted with thoracic trauma. In polytrauma patients, chest injuries are an independent negative predictor of 30-day mortality. These patients should be treated in an evidence-based and standardized manner to reduce mortality and morbidity. There are several methods of immediate diagnosis that should be used depending on hemodynamic stability. In addition to physical examination and chest X-ray, more specific techniques such as the eFAST protocol and Computed tomography (CT) of the chest are available. Once the source of bleeding has been identified, acute treatment is given depending on hemodynamic stability. Thoracic drainage remains the gold standard in the initial management of hemothorax. If surgery is required because of an active source of bleeding, a hemothorax that has not been completely relieved, or associated injuries, either a minimally invasive or open approach can be used. The main focus is to stabilize the patient and avoid early and late complications.
SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK: Rapid and prompt diagnosis and management of traumatic hemothorax is essential for patient outcome and should be taught to all young surgeons who are in direct contact with these patients.
