Abdominal Vascular Injuries: Techniques

2020
Injuries to major named vessels in the abdomen are present in 20–25% of patients undergoing laparotomy for gunshot wounds. This figure decreases to 10% in patients after stab wounds and to 5–10% in patients after blunt trauma.

Predicting and Preventing Infection after Abdominal Vascular Injuries

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1989
Of 210 patients with major intra-abdominal vascular injuries, 111 (53%) survived more than 48 hours. Of these, 41 (37%) developed serious infections resulting in death or a hospital stay exceeding 14 days (mean, 55 +/- 49) in the 33 who survived. The most frequent serious infections were intraperitoneal and resulted in a 35% mortality rate (8/23).

Operative management and outcome of 302 abdominal vascular injuries

The American Journal of Surgery, 2000
Abdominal vascular injuries incur high mortality rates. The purposes of this study are (1) review institutional experience, (2) determine additive effect on mortality of multiple vessel injuries, (3) determine mortality of combined arterial and venous injuries, and (4) correlate mortality with American Association for the Surgery of Trauma-Organ Injury

Diagnosis and management of abdominal vascular injuries

Trauma, 2012
Intra-abdominal vascular trauma is an injury that continues to challenge the general surgeon and leads to high morbidity and mortality even at busy urban trauma centers. The majority of patients arrive in hemorrhagic shock; therefore, rapid evaluation, resuscitation, and transfer to the operating room are necessary to treat these patients.
