Robotic repair of traumatic bronchial disruption: A minimally invasive and multi-disciplinary approach to a complex constellation of injuries
Bronchial disruption is a catastrophic consequence of blunt thoracic trauma with high pre-hospital lethality. This injury is classically managed through a large thoracotomy incision to facilitate adequate exposure for open repair. Here, we describe a case of complete bronchus intermedius disruption...

description | Bronchial disruption is a catastrophic consequence of blunt thoracic trauma with high pre-hospital lethality. This injury is classically managed through a large thoracotomy incision to facilitate adequate exposure for open repair. Here, we describe a case of complete bronchus intermedius disruption following a motor vehicle accident that was repaired via robotic thoracoscopy. The patient sustained multi-system trauma, including a grade III liver laceration, an innominate artery pseudoaneurysm, and femoral condyle fracture, all of which required systematic intervention and multi-disciplinary coordination to best facilitate this patient's care. This patient recovered well from his multiple injuries and was discharged after an uneventful post-operative course. |
