摘要：

Purpose of Review: This article reviews the finer points of thoracic trauma seen during combat and provides parallels to the civilian sector for potential implementation. Recent Findings: Lessons learned during recent conflicts in Iraq (Operation Iraqi Freedom), Afghanistan (Operation Enduring Freedom) as well as the ongoing military actions targeting the Islamic State (ISIS) have equipped combat surgeons with a breadth of knowledge concerning the management of complex thoracic trauma. The unique environment provided by war inherently fosters the development of innovation. Management of combat injuries has become more crucial to all trauma surgeons, as high-velocity weaponry and global terrorism can produce similar injury patterns in the civilian trauma setting. Summary: This review focuses on unique injuries seen in austere war-time environments with focus on thoracic trauma. Applications to civilian trauma are highlighted throughout the article with the hope that the experience gained by combat surgeons may aide in the advancement of trauma care. © 2018, This is a U.S. Government work and not under copyright protection in the US; foreign copyright protection may apply.
