Trauma to the Aorta Can Happen in Motor Vehicle Accidents, Particularly at High Speeds. Please Consult with Doctors and Personal Injury Attorneys Trained in Car Accidents to Determine Your Rights.
Trauma to the aorta happens mostly in motor vehicle accidents. For instance, say that you were involved in a head-on collision of the freeway. The car on the opposite lane suddenly swerves off the road and comes right in front of you. By the time you see it, it's already too late. You and the other driver collide head-on at high speeds.
You suffer multiple injuries, including trauma to your chest and aorta, the largest artery in your body that connects your heart to the rest of the body. Traumatic aortic disruption is a time-sensitive injury that requires rapid and accurate diagnosis and treatment to prevent death. In fact, nine out of 10 people you suffer this type of wound bleed to death at the accident scene.
If you survive, you will most likely have had to undergo heart surgery. Victims with heart disease will have to look at years of medication and treatment during the healing process. Your medical bills will be steep and dealing with the disease will be no easy task.
