Traumatic ventricular septal defects (VSDs) after penetrating trauma to the left chest are rare. Most of the traumatic VSDs are located in the muscular ventricular septum, and a few reports place them in the membranous ventricular septum. There has been no report of traumatic conoventricular VSD by penetrating trauma. We present a case of penetrating cardiac injury (PCI). The rupture of the right ventricular free wall was found and repaired in emergency operation. This is the first report of the use of auricular forceps to control cardiac rupture bleeding. After operation, we found traumatic conoventricular VSD, which was repaired under cardiopulmonary bypass.

Background Brachiocephalic vein aneurysm is a rare vascular malformation, which is often reported in case reports. At present it has attracted much attention due to the serious complications, such as vein aneurysm rupture, pulmonary embolism, venous thrombosis, etc. We report a case of left brachiocephalic vein aneurysm with compression symptoms. Case presentation a 52-year-old male who was admitted to our hospital with irritating cough for more than 1 month. Chest contrast-enhanced CT showed a localized expansion of 5.2 cm in diameter of the left brachiocephalic vein in the anterior mediastinum. The patient received venous angioplasty with brachiocephalic vein aneurysm resection, and the postoperative recovery was well. Conclusion Surgical operation is an effecive treatment method for brachiocephalic vein aneurysm, but it is still necessary to choose the appropriate way according to the type, size, location, lesion scope and complications of the vein aneurysm.
