Traumatic injury to the azygous vein: case report.

D A Butler1, R F Schneider, M Jadali.   

Abstract

Injury to the azygous vein is rare in blunt chest trauma. A review of the world's literature revealed only 10 cases of trauma-related azygous vein injury. We report another patient who survived azygous vein rupture secondary to thoracic rib injury. With prompt recognition, emergency thoracotomy and proper therapy, patients with azygous vein injury have a high survival rate.
