Abstract EN
A tension pneumothorax is one of the main causes of cardiac arrest in the initial postoperative period after thoracic surgery.
Tension pneumothorax and cardiac herniation must be taken into account in hemodynamically unstable patients after pneumonectomy.
We report an unusual case of successful treatment of acute tension pneumothorax following cardiac herniation and intrathoracic bleeding after pneumonectomy.
