We report a case of a 59-year-old man with a delayed massive hemothorax from a fall-induced blunt thoracic trauma, causing multiple right lower rib fractures. The patient fell from a chair while standing on and working from it. He was diagnosed with right 7th\u201311th rib fractures, scanty hemothorax and liver contusion. The patient was hospitalized and received conservative treatment, and a delayed massive hemothorax was present on the fourth day after the injury. Chest tube drainage and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery were performed, and the patient was discharged 16\u00a0days after the surgery without bleeding or other complications. Delayed hemothorax should be considered when thoracic trauma patients complain of chest discomfort, dyspnea, cold sweating or fatigue. Early recognition, appropriate diagnosis and rapid intervention can improve prognosis and lead to successful patient treatment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjab537","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,26]],"date-time":"2021-11-26T20:10:05Z","timestamp":1637957405000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Delayed
