- Abstract
- A great variety of penetrating injuries is happening due to the increasing population and violence today. An
optimal surgical approach is the key factor for successful repair of a complicated penetrating injury. A 23-yearold
woman fell down the stairs from the second floor and received cervico-thoracic penetration injury due to a
metalic bar. The metalic bar ruptured the right jugular vein and penetrated the left upper and lower lung. Under
cervico-median sternotomy, neck vessels were repaired and the left thorax was successfully entered to repair
the damaged lung through the mediastinal pleura. With this approach, the patient’s position did not need to be
changed during operation, while reduced the operation time compared to the conventional approach (cervical
incision and standard thoracotomy). (J Korean Soc Traumatol 2008;21:136-139)
