Respiratory Care Clinics of North America, 2001
The successful management of pediatric thoracic injuries includes immediate and careful evaluation of the injury type and severity. Early treatment can be conservative in nature or require surgical management. Prompt intervention can reduce morbidity and mortality rates, associated complications, and ensure optimal outcomes.

Thoracic aortic and thoracic vascular injuries
Surgical Clinics of North America, 2001Patients with thoracic vascular injuries fall into two groups: those who are exsanguinating and require an empiric operation with a high mortality and those with contained injuries that permit preoperative evaluation. The unstable group requires judgment to determine the appropriate empiric position, exposure, and operation.

Penetrating thoracic injuries: in-field stabilization vs. prompt transport.
Journal of Trauma, 1987One hundred patients who were in extremis and required Emergency Room Thoracotomy (ERT) after sustaining penetrating thoracic injuries were analyzed to compare the results of attempted stabilization in the field (n = 51) with those who had immediate ...

Traumatic injuries: imaging of thoracic injuries
European Radiology, 2002Chest trauma is one of the most important causes of death, in particular in individuals under the age of 40 years. The mortality rate for chest trauma, often related to motor vehicle accidents, is approximately 15.5%; it increases dramatically to 77% with associated shock and head injury (Glasgow scores of 3-4).

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2006
This article emphasizes multirow detector CT (MDCT) technique, the spectrum of findings for diagnosing major thoracic vascular injuries, and the challenges and potential errors that might be encountered. In particular, the role of MDCT data after processing to enhance diagnostic accuracy and convey appropriate and required diagnostic information to the

Scandinavian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1974
During the period 1956–1969, a total of 765 patients with thoracic injuries—either isolated or combined with other injuries—were treated as in-patients at the University Hospital, Uppsala. The over-all mortality during this 14-year period was 9% (69/765).

INFLUENCE OF ARM POSITION ON THORACIC INJURIES IN SIDE IMPACT
, 1981The thorax is frequently involved in side impact accidents; in such accidents, injuries to the thorax are related to the intrusion. The position of the impacted side arm can affect the occuring of thoracic injuries in side impact.
