摘要
误解放射检查结果可能导致不必要的干预和潜在的患者伤害。在危急情况下,应对健康受损的创伤患者所需的紧迫性可能会增加误读胸部 X 光片的可能性。我们介绍了一名创伤患者的病例报告,该患者在复查胸部 X 光片时将皮肤褶皱伪影误认为是气胸,结果导致不必要的胸管插入。我们希望通过考虑位置、形状、锐利度和血管标记等因素,帮助其他人区分外伤患者胸部 X 光片上的皮肤皱褶和气胸。
Misinterpretation of a skin fold artifact as pneumothorax on the chest x-ray of a trauma patient in Korea: a case report.
Misinterpreting radiographic findings can lead to unnecessary interventions and potential patient harm. The urgency required when responding to the compromised health of trauma patients can increase the likelihood of misinterpreting chest x-rays in critical situations. We present the case report of a trauma patient whose skin fold artifacts were mistaken for pneumothorax on a follow-up chest x-ray, resulting in unnecessary chest tube insertion. We hope to help others differentiate between skin folds and pneumothorax on the chest x-rays of trauma patients by considering factors such as location, shape, sharpness, and vascular markings.
