초록

배경: 심장 손상은 외상으로 사망한 환자에서 가장 많이 간과되는 손상이다. 둔상이나 관통상으로 생존하는 환자는 드물며 그리고 발생률은 아직 명확하지가 않다. 많은 수의 환자에서 긴급 또는 응급수술을 요하며 또한 사망률이 매우 높다. 대상 및 방법: 1997년 2월부터 2005년 12월까지 흉부외상으로 심장손상을 입은 응급 흉부 절개술을 한 26명의 환자를 후향적으로 조사하였다. 결과: 남자가 17명, 여자가 9명이고 평균나이는 $45.3{\pm}16.2$세($17{\sim}80$세)였다. 13명(50%) 환자는 자동차 사고, 5명(19%)의 환자는 오토바이사고로 손상을 입었다. 6명(23%)의 환자는 칼에 의해, 2명(8%)의 환자는 작업 중 높은 곳에서 떨어져서 손상을 받았다. 손상 받은 심장은 우심방 12예(46%), 좌심방 1예(4%), 우심실 5예(19%), 좌심실5예(19%) 그리고 두 곳의 심장손상이 2예(7%)였다. 진단은 12예의 환자에서는 컴퓨터 단층촬영으로, 14예의 환자는 초음파를 이용하여 진단하였다. 입원에서 수술실까지 걸린 시간은 평균$89.2{\pm}86.7$분($10{\sim}335$)이었고, 평균 진단시간은 $51.3{\pm}13.6$분(5-280)이었다. 외상인자로 개정 외상 계수, 글라스고우 혼수 계수의 평균이 $6.7{\pm}0.8,\;12.8{\pm}2.8$이었다. 사망률은 12%였다. 결론: 심장손상으로 인한 사망률은 매우 높다. 높은 관심과, 적극적이고 신속한 진단, 그리고 즉각적이고 적절한 외과적인 치료가 환자의 생존율 높일 수 있다.

Background: Cardiac injuries are the most commonly overlooked injuries in patients who die from trauma. Patients who survive blunt cardiac rupture or penetrating injuries are rare and the incidence is not well defined. Many patients require urgent or emergency operations and operative mortality is very high. Material and Method: A retrospective review of 26 patients with cardiac injuries due to thoracic trauma undergoing emergency thoracotomy from January 1997 to December 2005. Result: There were 17 male and 9 female patients, with a mean age of $45.3{\pm}16.2\;(range:\;17{\sim}80)$. Thirteen patients (50%) were injured in motor vehicle accidents, and five patients (19%) in motorcycle accidents. Six patients (23%) were injured by knives, and two patients (8%) were injured by falling. Anatomic injuries included right atrium (12 [46%]), left atrium (1 [4%]), right ventricle (5 [19%]), left ventricle (5 [19%]), and cardiac chambers (2 [7%]). Diagnosis was made by computer tomography in 12 patients and sonography in 14 patients. The average times from admission to operating room was $89.2{\pm}86.7\;min\;(range:\;10{\sim}335)$. The average time for diagnosis was $51.3{\pm}13.6\;min\;(range:\;5{\sim}280)$. The mean Revised Trauma Score (RTS) was $6.7{\pm}0.8$, and the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), was $12.8{\pm}2.8$. The overall mortality rate was 12% (3 out of 26 patients). Conclusion: The mortality rate from cardiac injury is very high. The survival rate can be increased only by a high index of suspicion, aggressive expeditious diagnostic evaluation, and prompt appropriate surgical management.
