Bisikletten Düşme Sonrası İzole Künt Submandibular Gland Yaralanması

Abstract

Giriş: Acil servise boyunda şişlik ile başvuran hastalarda, özellikle travma anamnezi varsa, boyun bölgesi yapılarının yaralanması düşünülmelidir. Hayatı tehdit edebilecek durumlar hızla gözden geçirilmeli ve uygun görüntüleme yöntemleri ile tanıya ulaşılarak tedavi planlanmalıdır. Olgu Sunumu: Acil servise başvurmadan 2 saat önce bisikletten düşme sonucu boynunda şişlik gelişen, ultrasonografi ve bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntülemeleri sonucunda da izole submandibular bez yaralanması tanısı konan bir hasta sunulmuştur. Sonuç: Künt travma sonucu gelişen izole submandibular bez yaralanması oldukça nadirdir. Tanıda radyolojik görüntüleme yöntemleri yardımcı olur. Hastalar ek yaralanmalar açısından dikkatle değerlendirilmelidir.

Isolated Blunt Submandibular Gland Injury after a Fall from a Bicycle

Abstract

Introduction: Injury to deep neck structures should be considered during emergency room (ER) admissions in patients with a chief complaint of swelling in the neck, particularly when there is a history of trauma to the neck. Life-threatening conditions should be assessed, diagnosis should be made using appropriate imaging modalities, and treatment should be planned accordingly.Case Report: A 30-year-old male presented to the ER with the chief complaint of a swollen neck 2 h after he fell off a bicycle. Based on the ultrasound and computed tomography analysis, he was diagnosed with isolated submandibular injury.Conclusion: Isolated submandibular injury following a blunt trauma is a rare condition. Obtaining appropriate imaging modalities is helpful in confirming the diagnosis. Patients with blunt trauma should also be carefully assessed for other, nonapparent injuries
