Perthes Syndrome (Traumatic asphyxia) is rare, which is caused by sudden compressive chest trauma and characterized by subconjunctival hemorrhage, facial edema, craniocervical cyanosis, and petechiae on the upper chest and face.
We present the case of a 4-year-old Caucasian girl who developed traumatic asphyxia associated with intramedullary spinal cord hemorrhage following thoracic compression.
We have not found the association of Perthes syndrome with intramedullary spinal cord hemorrhage described in the medical literature. To our knowledge, the current case is the first report of Perthes Syndrome associated with intramedullary spinal cord hemorrhage.
佩尔热斯综合征(创伤性窒息)较为罕见,由胸部突然受压所致,其特征为结膜下出血、面部水肿、颅颈青紫以及上胸部和面部瘀点。
我们报告了一名4岁白人女孩的病例,该女孩在胸部受压后发生创伤性窒息并伴有脊髓内出血。
我们在医学文献中未发现佩尔热斯综合征与脊髓内出血相关的报道。据我们所知,本病例是佩尔热斯综合征与脊髓内出血相关的首例报告。
