Perforation of the aorta by a rib edge: an unusual complication after chest wall resection.

Abstract:

:Thoracic aortic perforation in the context of a minor trauma is extremely rare. In this article, we describe a case of an 80-year-old man who presented with an aortic perforation after a fall from his height during his hospitalization. The patient had previously undergone a left superior lobectomy, a partial chest wall resection, and reconstruction for a locally invasive lung cancer. He was directly transferred to the operating room, as he presented with hemodynamic instability. A 4-mm laceration in the descending thoracic aorta was identified and repaired. The postoperative course was uneventful. This case illustrates the importance of applying a solid fixation to the rib stumps when performing a chest wall resection, irrespective of the size of the wall defect.
