Abstract
- A five-year-old boy was diagnosed with the ventricular septal rupture and ventricular aneurysm after blunt chest trauma in child abuse. Because of the intractable heart failure, he underwent operation in subacute period. Postoperative course was uneventful. The blunt cardiac injury in children can be caused by mild trauma and can be lethal. Surgical intervention should be considered when the clinical condition is unstable.
