    <p>Many patients die immediately after suffering a heart wound; on the other hand, many others die before the surgery, during surgery or later, due to complications.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref>
		</p>
    <p>We admitted a 33-year-old man after a suicide attempt occurring one hour before, with eleven knife-wounds localized in the left-anterior chest wall (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1">Figure:1-A</xref>). Physical exam showed hypotension, dyspnea, high central venous pressure and mild external bleeding. Hemodynamic monitoring, tracheal intubation, vasopressor perfusion, fluid therapy and urgent echocardiogram and tomography were undertaken. ACT showed severe pericardial effusion and moderate left pleural effusion (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1">Figure:1-B</xref>, white arrows). Emergency cardiac surgery was performed through median sternotomy. Multiple pericardial tears were visualized. The pericardial clot was removed (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1">Figure:1-C</xref>) and the right ventricular wound was closed using a monofilament suture (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1">Figure:1-D</xref>, black arrow). In the inner chest wall, a complete left mammary artery transection was observed with severe bleeding into the left pleural cavity (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1">Figure:1-E</xref>, white arrow). The mammary artery was repaired, and the bleeding was controlled. The postoperative course was uneventful.</p>

    <p>Heart wounds are serious health problems. The dramatic statistics have shown that many problems connected with traumatic cardiac lesions are not ultimately resolved. Knife stabs to the right ventricle are perhaps the most common penetrating injury to the heart, but the additional complete transection of the mammary artery is very uncommon. The most important factor for survival is the urgency treatment and the immediate surgical repair.</p>

      <p>Muitos pacientes morrem imediatamente ap&#243;s sofrer um ferimento no cora&#231;&#227;o; por outro lado, muitos outros morrem antes, durante ou depois da cirurgia, devido a complica&#231;&#245;es.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref>
			</p>
      <p>Admitimos ao hospital um homem de 33 anos ap&#243;s uma tentativa de suic&#237;dio ocorrida uma hora antes, com onze ferimentos de faca localizados na parede tor&#225;cica anterior esquerda (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2">Figura 1-A</xref>). O exame f&#237;sico mostrou hipotens&#227;o, dispneia, press&#227;o venosa central elevada e sangramento externo leve. Monitoramento hemodin&#226;mico, intuba&#231;&#227;o traqueal, perfus&#227;o de vasopressor, terapia intravenosa de fluidos, ecocardiograma e tomografia de urg&#234;ncia foram realizados. A TCA mostrou derrame peric&#225;rdico grave e derrame pleural esquerdo moderado (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2">Figura 1-B</xref>, setas brancas). Cirurgia card&#237;aca de emerg&#234;ncia foi realizada atrav&#233;s de esternotomia mediana. Rasgos peric&#225;rdicos m&#250;ltiplos foram visualizadas. O co&#225;gulo peric&#225;rdico foi removido (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2">Figura 1-C</xref>) e o ferimento no ventr&#237;culo direito foi fechado com sutura de monofilamento (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2">Figura 1-D</xref>, seta preta). Na parede tor&#225;cica interna, foi observada a transec&#231;&#227;o completa da art&#233;ria mam&#225;ria esquerda com sangramento grave na cavidade pleural esquerda (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f2">Figura 1-E</xref>, seta branca). A art&#233;ria mam&#225;ria foi reparada e o sangramento foi controlado. O curso p&#243;s-operat&#243;rio transcorreu sem intercorr&#234;ncias.</p>

      <p>Ferimentos card&#237;acos s&#227;o problemas graves de sa&#250;de. As estat&#237;sticas dram&#225;ticas mostraram que muitos problemas relacionados com les&#245;es card&#237;acas traum&#225;ticas n&#227;o s&#227;o resolvidos em &#250;ltima inst&#226;ncia. Ferimentos a faca no ventr&#237;culo direito s&#227;o talvez a les&#227;o penetrante mais comum no cora&#231;&#227;o, mas a transec&#231;&#227;o completa adicional da art&#233;ria mam&#225;ria &#233; muito incomum. O fator mais importante para a sobreviv&#234;ncia &#233; o tratamento de urg&#234;ncia e o reparo cir&#250;rgico imediato.</p>
