Abstract:
Objective:To explore the clinical effect of the emergency surgical treatment of tracheobronchial injury.Methods:11 operative patients with tracheobronchial injury were studied and analyzed.Results:8 patients were emergcntly operated with thoracotomy through tracheobronchial repair.2 cases suffered left inferior pulmonary atelectasis after operation and they healed with sucking sputum through tracheal cannula and positive-pressure ventilation.Right subphrenic abscess occurred in 1 case,and the patient healed with exploratory laparotomy and drainage.There were no death and no bronchopleural fistula or bronchostenosis after operation.Conclution:The emergency tracheobronchial prosthesis through thoracotomy is an important treatment for tracheobronchial injury,which is safe and accompanied with less complications.
