Key Points

Computed tomography identifies intrapulmonary complications based on rib fracture types and sites, aiding patient management.
In a cohort of 560 patients with rib fractures, significant differences were observed in complication risks related to fracture location.
Retrospective evaluation through thoracic computed tomography revealed critical data on rib fractures and associated complications.
Findings may enable targeted interventions to reduce complications from rib fractures and improve emergency care strategies.
