title: [Morphology of acute lung injuries in mechanic trauma].
abstract: The lungs from 60 subjects who had died of polytrauma were studied morphologically. The heads of the corpses were not injuried. The aim of the study was investigation of characteristics and time of development of structural changes associated with lung injury. Early structural changes in trauma were disorders of circulation including microcirculation, acute emphysema, distelectases and atelectases, injury of bronchial and bronchiolar mucosa. Pulmonary edema and systemic inflammatory reaction emerge in the first hours after trauma.
