Abstract

A 23-year-old man suffered two gunshot wounds and upon arrival to the emergency room was found on imaging to have a large pneumothorax with considerable subcutaneous emphysema. Intubation and placement of bilateral chest tubes did not improve the patient's oxygenation; bronchoscopy revealed a 1 cm tracheal defect in the membranous wall 4 cm proximal to the carina. The patient underwent robot-assisted primary repair of the tracheal injury with a #3-0 PDS Stratafix barbed suture buttressed with an intercostal muscle flap. The patient was discharged in good condition on post-operative day 17, with follow-up bronchoscopy showing complete healing of the trachea.

机器人辅助胸腔镜修复气管枪伤

一名 23 岁的男子身受两处枪伤，送到急诊室后经造影检查发现他有一个巨大的气胸，并伴有大量皮下气肿。插管和放置双侧胸管并未改善患者的氧合情况；支气管镜检查发现，在距心尖近端 4 厘米处的膜壁上有一个 1 厘米长的气管缺损。患者接受了机器人辅助下的气管损伤初级修复术，使用 3-0 号 PDS Stratafix 倒钩缝合线，并用肋间肌瓣进行支撑。术后第 17 天，患者康复出院，随访支气管镜检查显示气管完全愈合。
