Abstract:
Penetrating chest trauma can result in multiple clinical syndromes depending on the structures involved. Tamponade, valvular regurgitation, ventricular septal defect (VSD), conduction system abnormalities, and coronary lacerations have been reported. We report a case of right ventricular free wall laceration, VSD, and coronary artery fistula involving a septal perforator.
