The group of the patients with simple thorax injury and lung contusion, but without injuries of thorax frame, consisted of 63% of the patients, who addressed for an aid at first hours after accidents. Clinical X-ray pictures have been not clearly expressive. 37% of patients, who had asked for medical aid in 3-5 days after accidents, had trauma complications.
