Resumen
SANDELIS ACOSTA, Alfredo et al. Penetrating cardiac trauma treated at the teaching Territorial Hospital Pedro Betancourt. Municipality of Jovellanos. 2004. Report of a case. Rev. Med. Electrón. [online]. 2010, vol.32, n.6, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1684-1824.
Penetrating cardiac trauma is one of the most dramatic features that could assist the urgency service because of its high lethality. Only a fast delivery of the patient to a health care institution, a precocious diagnostic and an urgent thoracotomy might increase survival. We present a patient operated in the Teaching Territorial Hospital Pedro Betancourt, Jovellanos, in May 2004, for a left ventricular injury, achieving his survival.
