| Abstract |
Fractures of the anterior chest wall are rare among the total number of fractures. They include sternal fractures (SF) and the adjacent cartilaginous structures of the ribs. The accident mechanism can allow conclusions to be drawn about which further accompanying injuries may be present, e.g. rib and spinal fractures. The present work is intended to give an overview of injuries of the anterior chest wall. It includes clinical aspects as well as imaging and popular literature. Included are injury constellations of the anterolateral chest wall, in particular of the sternum in combination with injuries of the spinal column in the sense of a sternovertebral injury (SVI). Possible treatment strategies were reviewed and the corresponding advantages and disadvantages are presented. In symptomatic fractures of the anterior chest wall, their operative stabilization should be considered in order to restore the stability of the trunk. In addition, rib fractures in direct trauma and spinal injuries in indirect trauma are often included in the treatment. In the case of injuries of the thoracic trunk, this must always be regarded as a unit and must therefore be clarified in the context of the clinical examination and diagnostic apparatus. The possible accident mechanism can allow conclusions to be drawn about possible injury patterns, e.g. in the sense of SVIs. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 July 2018.
All research outputs
#22,767,715
of 25,385,509 outputs
Outputs from Die Unfallchirurgie
#439
of 819 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#298,327
of 340,712 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Die Unfallchirurgie
#3
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,385,509 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 819 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.7. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 340,712 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
