Toractic trauma is the third most common among all types of trauma. This study was aimed at conducting an analysis of the demographic characteristics of patients with trauma, causes of trauma, developing pathologies, treatment approaches and causes of mortality. Tools and Methods: The hospital records of 127 patients assessed in emergency service due to traumatic pneumotorax between January 2018 and December 2019 were reverse assessed and analyzed. Results: The average age of 127 patients involved in the study was 53.49 ±16.96 and the average infestation time was 7.63 ±3.65. Traumatic pnömotoraks forming künt trauma is the cause of traffic accidents while penetrating trauma was detected as a decay cutting tool injury. The severity of the contusion, the number of cuts and the meaningful relationship between age and deposit periods (p=0,045, p=0,045 and P<0,001) were identified. A significant difference in mortality was observed in the group accompanied by neurochirurgical pathology in multi-traumatic pneumotoraks patients (P<0,001). The result: Traumatic pneumotorax is a pathology that is quite important and requires early intervention due to fractures and contuition. Especially in the elderly patients, effective medical treatment and respiratory physiotherapy are of great importance in patients with a high number of cyst fractures and in cases accompanied by lung contagion.
