摘要
We report a 70-year-old man who had a rare complication related to the insertion of Kirschner wires for fixation of a right clavicle fracture. Eight months after the placement of the Kirschner wires, he presented with cough and hemosputum. Chest roentgenograms, chest computed tomographic scans, and bronchoscopy revealed that one of the Kirschner wires had migrated through the lung and into the intrathoracic trachea. Immediate thoracotomy was performed to remove the wire. His postoperative course was uneventful. (Ann Thorac Surg 2009; 88: 653-4) (C) 2009 by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons
