摘要
A 24-year-old male patient who sustained blunt trauma to the chest resulting in a flail chest, myocardial contusion and injury to mitral valve is reported. An emergency surgical correction of the mitral lesion was performed. A high index of suspicion, prompt diagnosis and aggressive intervention of such injuries can lead to successful repair of such a potentially fatal cardiac trauma.
