Overview

Haemothorax may be caused by trauma or can be spontaneous and iatrogenic. Causes of traumatic haemothorax include blunt force injuries, penetrating thoracic injuries, and thoracoabdominal injuries. Causes of spontaneous haemothorax include vascular disorders, malignancies, connective tissue disorders, gynecological disorders, hematological disorders, and miscellaneous pathological entities. Haemothorax can also be a complication of various iatrogenically-related procedures. In addition, the cause of haemothorax can remain unknown even after exploratory thoracotomy.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

Causes

[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

Traumatic haemothorax

Chest trauma is of three types:

Spontaneous or non-traumatic haemothorax

Spontaneous haemothorax is a rare clinical condition in the absence of trauma or iatrogenic causes. Bilateral spontaneous haemothorax is a very rare entity and the main cause of it is primary or metastatic pleural angiosarcoma. Causes of spontaneous haemothorax include:

  • Connective tissue disorders causing spontaneous hemothorax include Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (Ehlers–Danlos type IV, EDS IV), Marfan syndrome, Loeys–Dietz syndrome, familial thoracic aortic aneurysm syndrome, Shprintzen–Goldberg syndrome and Type I neurofibromatosis (NF-1) or Von Recklinghausen's disease (VRD).
  • Pleural disorders causing spontaneous hemothorax include spontaneous pneumothorax, spontaneous pneumohemothorax (the accumulation of >400 mL of blood in the pleural cavity in association with spontaneous pneumothorax) and pleural metastasis.
  • Coastal exostoses or osteochondroma occurs either sporadically or as a manifestation of a genetic disorder known as hereditary multiple exostoses (HME). Lesions mainly occur in infants and children and their complications include haemothorax, pneumothorax, diaphragmatic or pericardial lacerations and visceral pleural injury.
  • Gynecological disorders causing spontaneous hemothorax include Intrathoracic implantation of ectopic endometrial tissue occurs as a result of migration of endometrial tissue through the diaphragm. Spontaneous haemothorax may be a response to cyclical hormonal changes in menstruating women.

Iatrogenous haemothorax

Iatrogenous haemothorax may be caused by either intrathoracic vessel cannulation, chest drain insertion, needle thoracocentesis, pleural or lung biopsies, closed-chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation, placement of subclavian- or jugular-catheters, endoscopic thoracic interventions, cardiopulmonary surgery, sclerotherapy of oesophageal varices, rupture of pulmonary arteries after placement of Schwann–Ganz catheters, thoracic sympathectomy or translumbar aortography. surgical procedures such as releasing the pleurae from the vertebrae, or the removal and curettage of intervertebral discs and cartilage end plates.
