Los autores han revisado su experiencia en 158 pacientes, con el propósito de evaluar la frecuencia con que se afecta el pulmón en los traumatismos cerrados de tórax y el papel que dicha afectación juega en la evolución de estos enfermos.

Se estudia separadamente un grupo A, formado por casos graves tratados inicialmente en UCI y un grupo B formado por casos tratados en el propio Servicio de Cirugía Torácica exclusivamente, hallándose afectación pulmonar en el 70,9% del total de la serie. La contusión pulmonar solamente se presenta en el 87,5% del grupo A y en el 25,3% del B.

Como consecuencia de los resultados que se obtienen, los autores enumeran algunos conceptos a su juicio útiles para el tratamiento.

In an attempt to determine the frequency with which the lungs are affected as a result of injury to the thorax and the role in which lung involvement plays in the prognosis, the authors reviewed 158 cases.

The study was divided in two groups: group A including cases with severe injuries and initially treated in the intensive care unit and group B including cases treated in the Service of thoracic surgery only. The incidence of lung affectation was 70.9% for the whole series.

Pulmonary contusion was found in 87.5% of group A and 25.3% of group B.

Based on the results, the authors recommend useful therapeutic measures.
