Abstract

The placement of a chest drain is one of the most common surgical procedures in the hospital setting. It is performed by a large number of physicians of different specialties. Some techniques have made chest drainage more accessible through their speed and simplicity, such as the Seldinger technique. Nevertheless, it is an act that can, like any surgical technique, be the cause of significant morbidity and even mortality. We report the case of a patient who was treated with a thoracic drain using the Seldinger technique for a traumatic pneumothorax secondary to rib fractures. This procedure was complicated by a left ventricular perforation requiring urgent surgical management. We wish to highlight the risk associated with certain techniques described as minimally invasive, as is the case with the Seldinger technique, and to remind that this is not an innocuous procedure that may lead to serious complications. For this reason, it is necessary that the placement of a chest drain be performed by someone experienced, familiar with the equipment, after having read the clinical and radiological information concerning the patient and in compliance with the available guidelines.

[用Seldinger技术插入胸腔引流管继发的心室穿孔]。
放置胸腔引流管是医院最常见的外科手术之一。它由许多不同专业的医生执行。一些技术通过其速度和简单性使胸腔引流更容易实现,例如Seldinger技术。然而,像任何外科技术一样,这种行为可能会导致严重的发病率甚至死亡率。我们报告了一例使用Seldinger技术治疗继发于肋骨骨折的外伤性气胸的患者。该手术因左心室穿孔而复杂化,需要紧急手术治疗。我们希望强调与某些微创技术相关的风险,如Seldinger技术,并提醒这不是一种可能导致严重并发症的无害手术。因此,有必要由经验丰富、熟悉设备的人员在阅读有关患者的临床和放射信息并遵守现有指南后进行胸腔引流。
