Introducere: Leziunile diafragmatice sunt produse prin traumatisme toraco-abdominale închise sau deschise. Acestea sunt leziuni potenţial letale prin hernierea organelor abdominale în cavităţile pleurale şi prin severitatea leziunilor asociate. Scopul acestui studiu a fost analizarea manifestărilor clinice şi a managementului pacienţilor internaţi în clinica noastră cu diagnosticul de ruptura traumatică a diafragmului. Material şi metodă: Am efectuat un studiu retrospectiv pe o perioadă de 5 ani, în care am inclus pacienţii internaţi cu leziuni diafragmatice acute, internaţi în Clinica de Chirurgie Generală a Spitalului de Urgenţă "Bagdasar-Arseni". Am analizat repartiţia pe sexe şi vârstă, mecanismul traumei, localizarea, timpul până la diagnostic, leziunile concomitente, tratamentul chirurgical şi rezultatele. Rezultate: Au fost incluşi în studiu 15 pacienţi (8 bărbaţi, 7 femei, vârstă medie de 42 ani) cu rupturi diafragmatice (13 ale hemidiafragmului stâng, 2 ale celui drept), produse prin traumatisme închise (8 cazuri) sau deschise (7 cazuri). Leziunile diafragmatice închise au avut dimensiuni mai mari, producând hernierea viscerelor abdominale la 6 bolnavi. Sutura directă a fost efectuată la toţi cei 15 pacienţi, abordul prin laparotomie mediană fiind preferat de cele mai multe ori. Rata mortalităţii a fost de 20%, cauza principală fiind leziunile concomitente foarte grave. Concluzii: Deşi rupturile traumatice diafragmatice se asociază
Laryngo-tracheal stenosis is a complex pathology which requires multiple surgical interventions and diligence from the surgeon and patience from the patient so that normal physiology may be restored. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the factors that can influence the evolution of this pathology. It is presented a retrospective study in which 20 cases of larynx stenosis from 2008 until 2018 were evaluated. The study revealed a predominance of the pathology in men, especially from rural environment. The etiology of larynx stenosis was both iatrogenic and traumatic. Multiple surgical interventions classical and endoscopic were necessary, along with tracheostomy. In 7 cases there was the need for larynx stent to be mounted. There was no significant correlation between age, etiology and the site of stenosis and the removal of the tracheostomy. Larynx stenosis benefit in present by modern surgical techniques. Current therapeutic options include conservative therapy, endoscopic approach and external approach depending on the site, severity, morbidities of the stenosis. Even if technology is of great help in LS management of many patients, unfortunately there are still cases where therapy is very complex and with poor functional results.
