AbstractSevere thoracic trauma is a major cause of early death following road accident. 569 non-surviving and 112 surviving victims of traffic casualties were documented by the Accident Research Unit of the Clinic of Trauma Surgery, Hannover Medical School from 1973 to 1987. Medical data and measures of rescue were evaluated with a view to way of clinical therapies, lethal outcome and time of death. Primary intubation and chest draining seems to be the most successful initial treatment on the scene and during transport.
