Objetivo: Relatar um caso de trauma cardíaco, a importância de saber como proceder com tal trauma e as diferentes formas que o mesmo pode se apresentar na emergência. Detalhamento de caso: Paciente do sexo masculino, 47 anos, mototaxista, sofreu uma colisão: moto com um artefato de caminhão. Paciente apresentou na triagem murmúrio vesicular bilateral e, com os exames complementares, viu-se que o mesmo tinha presença de derrame pleural esquerdo, lâmina líquido pericárdico, um hematoma no mediastino alargando a porção superior do mesmo e atelectasia do parênquima. Foi realizada uma toracotomia de emergência, detectando-se uma lesão no átrio direito, na entrada da veia cava superior, e, no pós operatório, o paciente foi entubado e teve drenos bilateralmente no tórax. Considerações finais: Mesmo sendo visto há séculos, o trauma cardíaco continua a se apresentar como um tema importante, devendo ser detectado o mais breve possível. No presente relato, veremos um caso que se mostrou de maneira atípica, contudo, foi rapidamente identificado e tratado.
Esophageal fistula is a rare disease with a mortality rate of up to 31% of cases and with multifactorial causes. The most common etiologies of esophageal perforation are associated with iatrogenic, foreign body ingestion, as well as cases of lesions of neoplastic origin. Consisting of an innovative therapy with efficiency not yet evaluated in clinical studies, the present study sought to report a series of cases of patients with esophageal fistulas undergoing treatment with endoscopic vacuum therapy (VTE) assisted by the service team of a tertiary public hospital. from the state of Ceará in order to contribute with evidence that reinforces the role of VTE in the closure of esophageal perforations of different etiologies. In addition, in order to contextualize the importance of the cases presented, we carried out an integrative review in order to list the main clinical findings on the use of VTE available in the world scientific literature. There was a need for continuous development of new clinical studies that seek to improve and validate the use of VTE for the safe and effective treatment of esophageal fistulas, emphasizing that treatment with VTE can maximize the therapeutic response, bringing a greater and better clinical patient satisfaction.
