How likely is it that fracture of the 5th and 6th ribs will cause heart failure?

The fracture occured when a person karate chopped a person in the chest. This can lead to cardiac contusion, but I suppose only if hit in a certain area. Will fracturing the 5th and 6th ribs cause significant bruising to the heart?
