From January 1989 to December 1993 at the Department of Clinical Surgery at the University of Perugia, 7 patients were under observation for multiple costal fractures and flail chest. One of them died almost immediately after his admission and therefore received no more than the initial medical treatment. Another died 17 days after costal osteosynthesis of cerebral complications. Four others successfully underwent a costal osteosynthesis, while the 7th patient received medical therapy with a positive outcome. In the case of a critical flail chest with very serious physio-pathological consequences, if the fractures are in technically favourable places, we think it is better to stabilize immediately, since the operating trauma is minimum and in many cases the patient is already intubated and curarized.
