Abstract
Direct fetal injury is uncommon, and fetal brain is the most common organ to be involved. The most common cause of fetal injury is due to motor vehicle accident. Though brain damage is the most commonly encountered effect following motor vehicle accident, here we report a case of lung injury in the fetus causing massive pneumothorax and bilateral lower lobe pulmonary contusionsinspite of mother having no external injury to her abdomen or the newborn to his chest in the form of contusions or open injury.
