CASES REPORT: AORTIC VALVE TEAR ASSOCIATED WITH ASCENDING AORTIC LACERATION AND FISTULIZATION TO RIGHT ATRIUM AFTER TRAFIC ACCIDENT
Main Article Content
Abstract
Injury to the wall of the aorta in the form of laceration, dissection, hematoma... due to blunt chest trauma after traffic accidents is not uncommon. However, the number of survivors with aortic damage and multiple traumas is not much. An isolated aortic valve tear after trauma is very rare and easily missed. We report two cases of aortic valve tear associated with laceration of the ascending aorta (one case with right atrial fistula from aorta) after traffic accident causing by multiple thoracic-abdominal trauma.
