Abstract

A case of unexpected death associated with an aneurysm of the left ventricle caused by nonpenetrating chest trauma is described. A review of the more recent literature on the incidence, pathological course, and prognosis of the posttraumatic ventricular aneurysm pointed out the necessity of suspecting cardiac damage in cases of blunt chest trauma especially when major injuries may obscure heart involvement.

摘要

本文描述了一例因非穿透性胸部创伤导致左心室动脉瘤并伴有意外死亡的病例。回顾近期有关创伤后心室动脉瘤的发病率、病理过程及预后的文献指出，在钝性胸部创伤病例中，尤其是当严重损伤可能掩盖心脏受累情况时，有必要怀疑存在心脏损伤。
