摘要:

Sepsis and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage due to duodenal-caval fistula complicated delayed treatment of an abdominal gunshot wound. Gastric and duodenal decompression, external drainage of the duodenal repair, and caval ligation are preferred for delayed treatment of combined duodenal and infrarenal vena caval injuries.

摘要:

A case of oropharyngeal injury associated with an unsuspected direct atlas anterior arch fracture is presented. Instability at the occipito-atlanto-axial joints developed because of the coexistence of a rather common congenital defect of the posterior atlas arch. Awareness of the frequency of congenital atlas anomalies and the possibility of direct cervical spine injury with pharyngeal trauma will aid early recognition of this problem and allow early effective treatment.

摘要:

The need to account for teeth missing after a traumatic episode, and the need for radiologic methods of investigation of the oral, perioral, and respiratory areas into which teeth may lodge are discussed. A patient with undiagnosed traumatic intrusion of a lateral incisor is presented in whose case routine radiographic investigation before restorative treatment planning revealed the tooth in the maxilla. If such teeth are not removed, respiratory distress or abscess, or delayed healing may complicate recovery.

摘要:

The usefulness and relative safety of the technique of jet injection, mainly used in mass immunization, have been well established. A patient who developed a traumatic ulnar neuroma at the site of jet injection of swine flu vaccine is reported. This unusual and previously unreported complication of this procedure is thought to have occurred because of the patient's extremely small size and small muscles.

摘要:

Traumatic forequarter amputation is rare and extremely mutilating. A 21-year-old male factory worker who sustained a traumatic shoulder girdle amputation is described. The injury mechanism was traction from the machine's force combined with the compressive force on the sternoclavicular joint. The factors leading to survival from this injury include rapid transportation, prompt and effective resuscitation, including treatment of shock, and adequate surgical management. Recognition of the complications associated with retrosternoclavicular dislocation is emphasized.

摘要:

Acute esophageal perforation in a 15-year-old male who sustained 40% body burns in a gasoline explosion is reported. He experienced an acute esophageal perforation from gastric distention and esophageal reflux during initial transit to the Cincinnati Shriners Burns Institute on the second postburn day. Bilateral hydropneumothorax occurred and the patient soon expired without treatment. Prevention of this complication is best achieved by placement of a nasogastric tube and aggressive antacid therapy.
