description | Introduction: This is very rare case report regarding late ventricular septal defect (VSD) following blunt trauma.
Case Report:
A 23-year-old motorcycle rider lost control and crashed to another
motorcycle. He was transferred to emergency department by emergency
medical services. Initial evaluation revealed some minor trauma which
was managed, and he was discharged. There was a lately developed large
apical VSD with delayed cardiopulmonary deterioration. The defect was
recognized more than 10 days after accident, and repaired the day
after.
Discussion:
Most VSD patients with blunt trauma remain asymptomatic following
trauma while those with no primary findings experience gradual
decompensation. |
