The authors present a case of intrathoracic prolapse of the scapula after anterolateral thoracotomy. Although shoulder deformity and weakness have been reported after thoracotomy, intrathoracic scapular displacement has not previously been described. Debilitation and steroid therapy may have contributed to weakness of the chest wall. Computed tomography of the thorax was essential in making the diagnosis.
作者报告了1例前外侧开胸术后肩胛骨胸内脱垂的病例。虽然开胸术后曾有肩部畸形和无力的报道,但此前尚未描述过肩胛骨胸内移位。身体虚弱和类固醇治疗可能导致胸壁无力。胸部计算机断层扫描对做出诊断至关重要。
