3D CT severe rib fractures
The image shows chest CT 3D reconstruction of a flail chest in a patient in her late thirties who was ejected off a motorcycle. She arrived with complaints of severe chest pain precluding her ability to speak in full sentences or take a deep breath. The CT scan confirmed displaced fractures of nearly all the ribs on the right side. She underwent operative rib fixation of ribs 5 through 9 on postinjury day 1 and was extubated the following day.
