Surgical Site Infection after Surgical Stabilization of Rib Fractures: Rare but Morbid

Surgical Infections, 2022
Background: Although surgical stabilization for rib fractures (SSRF) has been adopted widely over the past decade, little information is available regarding the prevalence and outcomes of post-operative surgical site infection (SSI). We hypothesized that SSI after SSRF is uncommon but morbid.

Surgical Methods of Chest Stabilization in Multiple Rib Fractures

Неотложная медицинская помощь, 2023
Closed chest injury occupies one of the leading places among all injuries. Rib fractures can lead to the formation of floating fragments of the chest wall, the “costal valve”. With multiple rib fractures, surgical methods of chest stabilization have been

Early versus late surgical stabilization of severe rib fractures in patients with respiratory failure: A retrospective study.

PLoS ONE, 2019
IntroductionThe timing of surgical stabilization of rib fractures remains controversial. We hypothesized that early surgical stabilization (within 3 days of injury) can improve clinical outcome in patients with severe rib fractures and respiratory ...

Educational assessment of intrathoracic and extrathoracic surgical stabilization of rib fractures

Injury, 2023
Surgical stabilization of rib fractures (SSRF) is being done with increased frequency and new advances. Intrathoracic SSRF is a new less invasive approach compared to the traditional extrathoracic plating procedure. Educational assessment can be done through descriptive analysis of learning curves with operation time used as a proxy measurement for ...

The application of electrical impedance tomography and surgical outcomes of thoracoscope-assisted surgical stabilization of rib fractures in severe chest trauma [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Serious blunt chest trauma usually induces hemothorax, pneumothorax, and rib fractures. More studies have claimed that early video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery with surgical stabilization of rib fractures (SSRF) results in a good prognosis in patients ...

Tailored Surgical Stabilization of Rib Fractures Matters More Than the Number of Fractured Ribs. [PDF]

J Pers Med, 2022
Background: Patients sustaining multiple rib fractures have a significant risk of developing morbidity and mortality. More evidence is emerging that the indication of surgical stabilization of rib fractures (SSRF) should expand beyond flail chest. Nevertheless, little is known about factors associated with poor outcomes after surgical fixation.

Surgical stabilization of rib fractures. [PDF]

J Thorac Dis, 2019
Surgical stabilization of rib fractures (SSRF) is a very rapidly developing field in medicine. Rib fractures are very common and cause a lot of disability for the patients. Only in the last decade has SSRF been popularized. With the recognition of the amazing healing power of this procedure, many patients are being helped.
