While most residua of thoracic trauma are obvious, tracheal stenosis, aneurysm of the aortic arch and diaphragmatic hernia are easily overlooked. They may be asymptomatic and may go undetected until the occurrence of life-threatening consequences. Therefore, these three conditions must be thought of and ruled out during the management and follow-up observation of all patients who have trauma to the chest. Surgeons participating in the management of thoracic trauma must anticipate, prevent when possible, diagnose early and treat any of the residua that can, and often do, result.
虽然大多数胸部创伤的后遗症很明显，但气管狭窄、主动脉弓动脉瘤和膈疝很容易被忽视。它们可能没有症状，可能直到出现危及生命的后果才被发现。因此，在对所有胸部创伤患者的治疗和随访观察过程中，必须考虑并排除这三种情况。参与胸部创伤治疗的外科医生必须预见、尽可能预防、早期诊断并治疗任何可能且经常会出现的后遗症。
