A 22 year old male is E. Tracheobronchial injury
brought by ambulance to
a small community
hospital after falling from
the top of an 8 foot
ladder. Initially, he was
found to have a large right
pneumothorax. A chest
tube was inserted and
connected to an
underwater seal drainage
collection system with
negative pressure. A
repeat CXR demonstrates
a residual, large right
pneumothorax. After
transferring the patient to
a verified trauma center, a
third chest x-ray reveals a
persistent right
pneumothorax. The chest
tube appears to be
functioning and in good
position. He remains
hemodynamically normal
with no signs of
respiratory distress. The
most likely cause for the
persistent right
pneumothorax is:
A. Flail chest
B. Diaphragmatic injury
C. Pulmonary contusion
D. Esophageal perforation
E. Tracheobronchial injury
