Injury to the azygous vein is rare in blunt chest trauma. A review of the world's literature revealed only 10 cases of trauma-related azygous vein injury. We report another patient who survived azygous vein rupture secondary to thoracic rib injury. With prompt recognition, emergency thoracotomy and proper therapy, patients with azygous vein injury have a high survival rate.
奇静脉损伤在钝性胸部创伤中较为罕见。对全球文献的回顾显示,仅有10例与创伤相关的奇静脉损伤病例。我们报告了另一例因胸肋损伤导致奇静脉破裂但存活的患者。通过及时识别、急诊开胸手术和恰当治疗,奇静脉损伤患者有较高的生存率。
