Horner's syndrome is a rare condition that results when there is an interruption of the sympathetic fibers that run from the stellate ganglion to the eye. The classic triad of Horner's syndrome includes unilateral ptosis, miosis, and anhidrosis. Spontaneous pneumothorax is a rare condition that occurs when there is a sudden collapsed lung without any direct cause. A few cases have been reported of spontaneous pneumothorax associated with iatrogenic Horner's syndrome. A chest thoracostomy is a procedure that can lead to iatrogenic Horner's syndrome. Here, we present the case of a 25-year-old male with a left-sided spontaneous pneumothorax complicated by iatrogenic Horner's syndrome secondary to chest thoracostomy.
霍纳综合征是一种罕见病症,当从星状神经节至眼部的交感神经纤维受到阻断时就会引发。霍纳综合征的典型三联征包括单侧上睑下垂、瞳孔缩小和无汗。自发性气胸是一种罕见病症,指肺部在无任何直接病因的情况下突然塌陷。已有少数自发性气胸与医源性霍纳综合征相关的病例报道。胸部胸腔造口术是一种可能导致医源性霍纳综合征的手术。在此,我们报告一例25岁男性患者,其左侧自发性气胸因胸部胸腔造口术并发医源性霍纳综合征。
