Abstract
- The article presents a study conducted in Nanterre, France that examined the impact of heart displacements which were components of traumatic rupture of thoracic aorta (TRA) mechanisms through revascularized human cadaveric specimens. It cites that three tests using three cadaveric thoraxes were conducted. Results have shown that downward heart displacement fails to produce the classical TRA.
