The surgical principles for the treatment of flail chest have yet to be fully established. Furthermore, the relationship between flail chest and lung hernias is unclear. We report here a rare case of chondrosternal traumatic disruption and lung hernia that was treated with a novel technique using titanium rib bridges and clips, which successfully reduced the hernia defect and provided stability to the chest wall. This procedure was beneficial in minimising the patient's ventilation time and time away from work.
连枷胸治疗的手术原则尚未完全确立。此外,连枷胸与肺疝之间的关系尚不清楚。我们在此报告一例罕见的肋软骨外伤性断裂合并肺疝病例,采用一种使用钛肋骨桥和夹子的新技术进行治疗,该技术成功缩小了疝缺损并为胸壁提供了稳定性。该手术有助于缩短患者的通气时间和误工时间。
