Bull Emerg Trauma
January 2024
Trauma Research Center, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.
Article Synopsis
- Bronchial rupture should be considered in cases of significant air leaks from intercostal drain tubes after major chest trauma, as indicated by X-rays and CT scans.
- A case study of a 15-year-old boy involved in a car accident showed severe chest injuries, including rib fractures and pneumothorax, but no clear signs of bronchial rupture were found.
- Mechanical ventilation parameters indicated low pressures and tidal volume, which may signal bronchial rupture as a critical complication of blunt chest trauma.
Airway management in a child with complete tracheal transection following blunt laryngotracheal trauma.

Department of Anaesthesia, Christian Medical College Vellore, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, India.
Article Synopsis
- * It's crucial to assess the tracheobronchial tree with a flexible bronchoscope in children with suspected laryngotracheal injuries to avoid worsening the trauma through blind intubation.
- * The report focuses on a middle childhood patient who experienced a complete tracheal transection due to blunt laryngotracheal trauma, highlighting the importance of thorough airway management.
Partial rupture of the left main bronchus with left lung atelectasis due to blunt chest injury: a case report.
Front Med (Lausanne)
July 2024
Department of Nursing, First Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, China.
Background: Bronchial injury is rare in blunt chest trauma, but can be life-threatening. The symptoms of patients with complete bronchial rupture are typical, and most of them are diagnosed in a timely manner and treated with surgery. However, for those with partial rupture of the bronchus, the symptoms are mild, the imaging results are negative, the possibility of delayed diagnosis is high, and serious complications can occur.

Background: Tracheal tube introducers are recommended in airway management guidelines and are used increasingly as videolaryngoscopy becomes more widespread. This systematic review aimed to summarise the published literature concerning tracheal tube introducer-associated airway trauma.
Methods: PubMed, EMBASE and CINAHL databases were searched using pre-determined criteria.
