Mediastinal hematomas not associated with aortic disruption are thought to be common entities, and it is generally believed that most will spontaneously resolve. However, large mediastinal hematomas can cause fluctuations in cardiorespiratory physiology and can even cause death. Three cases of mediastinal hematomas are presented, as well as their surgical approach. Mediastinal hematomas should be evacuated because of their potential morbidity and mortality.
不伴有主动脉破裂的纵隔血肿被认为是常见情况，人们普遍认为大多数此类血肿会自行消退。然而，巨大纵隔血肿可导致心肺生理功能波动，甚至可导致死亡。本文介绍了三例纵隔血肿病例及其手术方法。鉴于纵隔血肿潜在的发病率和死亡率，应进行血肿清除术。
