The seat belt has been a major contributor in minimizing injuries in automobile accidents. However, it often causes characteristic patterned injuries to the body relative to its application at the time of an accident. We report an unusual case of a driver who sustained a transection of the trachea due to the "submarine effect" from improper application of the seat belt.
安全带在将汽车事故中的伤害降至最低方面发挥了重要作用。然而,相对于事故发生时安全带的使用情况,它常常会对身体造成特征性的压痕损伤。我们报告了一例不寻常的病例,一名司机因安全带使用不当产生的“潜水效应”导致气管横断。
