Abstract Objectives Chest computed tomography (CT) can diagnose and assess the severity of pulmonary contusions. However, in cases of severe lung contusion, the total lung volume ratio may not accurately predict severity. This study investigated the association between life-threatening hemoptysis and chest CT imaging data on arrival at the emergency department in patients with pulmonary contusions or lacerations due to blunt chest injury. Methods The records of 277 patients with lung contusions or lacerations treated at a trauma center between 2018 and 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. The ratio of the local lung contusion volume to lobe volume in each lobe was calculated from chest CT images. The maximal ratio in the Hounsfield unit (HU) range was defined as the highest ratio value within the HU range among five lobes. Results The median patient age was 41 years, and 68.6% were male. Life-threatening hemoptysis occurred in 39 patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the maximal ratio at −500 HU to 100 HU was 96.52%. The cutoff value was 45.49%. Multivariate analysis showed a high maximal chest CT ratio ≥ 45.49% at −500 HU to 100 HU (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 104.66, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 21.81–502.16, p |
