The lesions of impact cardiopathy ("cardiac contusion") which fail to heal satisfactorily, leading to delayed heart failure and death, are infrequently recognized, in part because of a general lack of appreciation of the lingering significance of lesser degrees of trauma. The case of a 31-year-old male dying 4 weeks after a vehicular collision provides strong confirmation of the expectable intermediate aspects of this spectrum of post traumatic lesions.
未能令人满意愈合、导致迟发性心力衰竭和死亡的撞击性心脏病（“心脏挫伤”）病变很少被认识到，部分原因是人们普遍没有认识到较轻程度创伤的持续影响。一名31岁男性在车祸后4周死亡的病例有力地证实了这种创伤后病变谱中可预期的中间情况。
