Preperitoneal Pelvic Packing Prior to Pelvic Angiography in Patients with Hemodynamic Instability due to Severe Pelvic Fracture: Two Cases [PDF]

Journal of Acute Care Surgery, 2016
The mortality of patients with hemodynamic instability due to severe pelvic fracture is high despite multidisciplinary management. Current management algorithms for these patients emphasize pelvic angioembolization (AE) for hemorrhage control. However, a
