AbstractOver the past few years, the indications for resuscitative thoracotomy in civilian trauma have been refined. The use of this procedure for military casualities has received only brief mention. We have described our experience with 93 consecutive thoracotomies performed in a level I trauma center and have attempted to better define the indications for this procedure in military medicine.
