Resumo

Os traumas torácicos são uma importante causa de hospitalização, morbidade e mortalidade na população jovem. Em muitas ocasiões, esses traumas torácicos se associam às fraturas dos arcos costais, consideradas benignas na maioria das vezes, mas que podem determinar uma maior gravidade em seus portadores, principalmente idosos. Neste trabalho de revisão, concluiu-se que o diagnóstico correto das fraturas deve ser realizado inclusive com o apoio da tomografia computadorizada, uma vez que a radiologia simples não é suficiente para a precisão diagnóstica. Em relação ao tratamento, muitos autores advogam a terapêutica cirúrgica, objetivando uma recuperação mais rápida dos pacientes internados com fratura de arcos costais.
