Abstract
Closed traumatic rupture is becoming more frequent, partly due to our modern traffic.
The surgeon's attitude to this type of lesion must be rather active. This results in primary healing with normal anatomy and normal function. The case described here stresses this as well as the two other cases treated in our Department of Thoracic Surgery (Thorén, 1962; Hallén, to be published).
